Bryan Fischer: Muslims Can Either Convert or Die

Bryan Fischer is the Director of Issue Analysis for Government and Public Policy at the American Family Association, where he provides his opinion to a range of public policy topics. American Family Radio is a division of the American Family Association, so they use their broadcasting facility to get their Reconstructionist message out far and wide.

Christian Recontructionism is a movement of politically-active Christians who seek influence over secular civil government through political action — aiming either at a nation governed by Christians or a nation governed by a Christian understanding of biblical law. The most prominent of those who believe in Dominion theology is Christian Reconstructionism.

They broadcast across the country, and they have the ability to influence Christians of all denominations.
In a recent broadcast, Bryan Fischer was able to show his true Dominionist colors. You will see that he has a lack of understanding of what is occurring in Libya, and a terrible notion of how to bring freedom to their country. Convert or die? Does anyone see anything wrong with this statement, or am I just being overly critical.

Lance Wallnau: A Vatican Hireling

Is Lance Wallnau preaching that men should repent and turn to the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved? No, he is mobilizing Christians to go to other nations and teach "Kingdom principles," acting as if that is going to change lives for eternity. He states clearly that he wants to "take dominion of the high places" - for Jesus Christ, so he says. Think about this for a moment. Did Jesus say He came to help people become better in Kingdom principles, or to seek and save the lost?

As you watch the videos, Wallnau bases his plan around a warfare strategy built on a Seven Mountains Mandate. He believes that ‘if the world is to be won, these are the mountains that mold the culture and the minds of men. Whoever controls these mountains, controls the direction of the world and the harvest therein. [1] Is this a move of the Holy Spirit? No, Wallnau and Dominionists are plotting an Evangelical sanctioned military campaign to wage war on the leadership of the nations. This is similar to the Crusades that took place during the early part of last millennia when the Roman Catholic church tried to fight against Islam. This time, however, the vision has broadened.

In the first video, Wallnau identifies who each of the seven mountains are, and explains that we (the Church) have the authority to rule over them. His desire is for the Church to rule over the world, using the model Hitler used when he took over the seven mountains during his reign of terror. Wallnau believes the Church can be equipped with a similar plan.

Let's Get the Big Picture
Many Bible students believe that the Roman Catholic system has headed up the end time apostate state, and history proves that it has. John, in the Book of Revelation, writes of seven mountains/hills with one to rule over them.

In Rev 17:9-11 KJV, the Bible says:
"Here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits. There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. And when he comes, he must continue a short time. The beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to perdition [a place of eternal punishment]. "
Matthew Henry says:
"It would deceive into stupid and blind submission all the inhabitants of the earth within its influence, except the remnant of the elect. This beast was seven heads, seven mountains, the seven hills on which Rome stands; and seven kings, seven sorts of government. Five were gone by when this prophecy was written; one was then in being; the other was yet to come. This beast, directed by the papacy, makes an eighth governor, and sets up idolatry again. It had ten horns, which are said to be ten kings who had as yet no kingdoms; they should not rise up till the Roman empire was broken; but should for a time be very zealous in her interest."
How does the Roman Catholic church and Lance Wallnau connect?
Lance Wallnau, and many of those in the prophetic movement, are members of a secret society called the Knights of Malta. This organization is a small division of the Knights Templar - who later helped to found Freemasonry.

The Knights of Malta are part of the militia for the Pope, and are sworn to total obedience by a blood oath. They are sworn in by taking the Jesuit Oath. [2]If you recall, the Jesuits are bound and determined to reclaim the Protestant Church for the Roman Catholic church.

The Objectives of the Knights of Malta
The Knights of Malta believe in these policies, principles, and objectives of the Vatican. The policies which are proclaimed by the office of the Pope are the same as those of the UN and the future world government.

1. End of sovereignty for the United States and other countries.
2. End of absolute property rights.
3. End of all gun rights.
4. The new international economic Order (world government).
5. The redistribution of wealth and jobs.
6. Calls for nations to trust the United Nations.
7. Total disarmament.
8. Promote the United Nations as the hope for peace.
9. Promote UNESCO, the deadly educational and cultural arm of the United Nations.
10. Promote interdependence.
11. Support sanctions honoring Father Pierre Teilhard de Chardin-the New Age Humanist Priest.
12. Support the belief that the economic principle of traditional Christian or Catholic social doctrine is the economic principle of communism.
13. Promote the Pope as the acting go-between for the United States and the Soviet Union.[3]

View this outdated list of members. Rick Joyner and Paul Cain are also members.

In the next video, Wallnau says: 1) that Seven Mountains Dominionism is founded upon the belief that every sphere of influence is literally being held captive by people hand-picked by Satan and 2) it is the obligation of Christians to "seize those high places" in order to bring about the return of Jesus Christ.


(YouTube link)

Have you noticed how difficult it is to analyze what he's saying? He's a master of doublespeak - deliberately disguising and distorting the truth, yet adding some true principles.

In the final video, Lance Wallnau does not say that he got the idea for the seven mountains from the Bible, rather from Lauren Cunningham and Bill Bright. Lauren Cunningham, founder of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) had a revelation from God in 1975. This was quickly confirmed in a meeting with Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade.Then they had another confirmation for their prophecy by another minister seen on television. All three had received the same list of seven areas of influence completely independent of one another. [4]


(YouTube link)

Why is the Seven Mountains Mandate and Dominion Theology important? It is gaining steam and becoming mainstream at many of the ecumenical events around the country/world. The false prophets are leading us directly back into the arms of Rome and the Roman Catholic church. Don't be fooled. It's not the next move of God!

David Barton: A Liar with an Agenda

A wolf amongst sheep David Barton, is doing plenty to fuel hate from the right with the blatant lies he tells to trusting Christians about our countries early history. Scholars have criticized Barton for presenting facts out of context or in misleading ways, but that hasn’t stopped him from promoting his theories through books, television. It was meant to have a political impact, and he is furthering the purpose of ill-advised Dominionists. He knows that he's a liar, and nothing seems to be stopping him.

The Courage & Motivating Factors of Dr. Terry Jones

The commotion being created over the Koran burning has really gotten tolerance-loving folks all riled up. This good vs. evil fight has many of the remnant Christians thinking, "At least someone has enough courage to stand up for what is right!" But there is something that drives Dr. Terry Jones that the media isn't talking about. This is because most people wouldn't know what the reporters were talking about, which is: Just as the Muslims want to take the world for Allah, Dr. Terry Jones wants to take the world for Jesus Christ. He believes in Dominion Theology, otherwise known as Kingdom Now. This is the desire to set-up God's Kingdom on earth before his arrival for the Church. Read his website statement about their beliefs. It doesn't come out and call it by name, but it's there.

So now that I only half admire him, let's see what he has to say. 

Ten Reasons to Burn the Koran
by Dr. Terry Jones
  1. The Koran teaches that Jesus Christ, the Crucified, Risen Son of God, King of Kings and Lord of Lords was NOT the Son of God, nor was he crucified. This teaching removes the possibility of salvation and eternal life in heaven for all Islam's believers. They face eternal damnation in hell if they do not repent.
  2. The Koran is not what Islam claims it to be. It does not have an eternal origin. It is not recorded in heaven. The Almighty God, Creator of the World, is NOT it's source. It is not holy. It's writings are human in origin, a concoction of old and new teachings.
  3. The Koran's teaching includes Arabian idolatry, paganism, rites and rituals. These are demonic, an ongoing satanic stronghold under which Muslims and the world suffer.
  4. The earliest writings that are known to exist about the Prophet Mohammad were recorded 120 years after his death. All of the Islamic writings (the Koran and the Hadith, the biographies, the traditions and histories) are confused, contradictory and inconsistent. We have no conclusive account about what he said or did. Yet Muslims follow the destructive teachings of Islam without question.
  5. Mohammad's life and message cannot be respected. The first Meccan period of his leadership seems to have been religiously motivated and a search for the truth. But in the second Medina period he was openly corrupt, power hungry, and obsessed with selfish pleasures. These are characteristics that God hates. They also led to political assassinations and massacres which continue to be carried out on a regular basis by his followers today.
  6. Islamic Law is totalitarian in nature. There is no separation of church and state. It is irrational. It is supposedly immutable and cannot be changed. It must be accepted without criticism. It has many similarities to Nazism, Communism and Fascism. It is not compatible with Western Civilization.
  7. Islam is not compatible with democracy and human rights. The notion of a moral individual capable of making decisions and taking responsibility for them does not exist in Islam. The attitude towards women in Islam as inferior possessions of men has led to countless cases of mistreatment and abuse for which Muslim men receive little or no punishment. This is a direct fruit of the teachings of the Koran.
  8. A Muslim does not have the right to change his religion. Apostasy is punishable by death.
  9. Islamic teaching and culture consistently perpetuate an irrational fear and loathing of the West.
  10. Islam is a weapon of Arab imperialism and Islamic colonialism. Where Islam has or gains political power, Christians, Jews and all non-Muslims suffer persecution and discrimination. This includes murders, rape, imprisonment and the destruction of churches, synagogues, temples and other places of worship.
"Many also of those who were now believers came making full confession and thoroughly exposing their [former deceptive and evil] practices. And many of those who had practiced curious, magical arts collected their books and [throwing them, book after book, on the pile] burned them in the sight of everybody. When they counted the value of them, they found it amounted to 50,000 pieces of silver (about $9,300). Thus the Word of the Lord [concerning the attainment through Christ of eternal salvation in the kingdom of God] grew and spread and intensified, prevailing mightily." Acts 19:18-20 (Amplified)

He's got a good point there, but he'll probably end up going to jail over it for creating an international incident, or get killed. Let's watch his website video describing the hatred of Muslims toward the US.

Brannon Howse: Dominion Theology Crowd & Globalists are Working Hand-in-Hand

Brannon exposes the agenda of the Dominion Theology crowd, and how they have hooked arms with the globalist plan. This is part of the religious Trojan horse he has been warning evangelicals not to take part in. This was yesterday's broadcast.

The Oak Initiative Update


(YouTube link)

The battle-cry of the Oak Initiative doesn't quite match what is stated in their mild-mannered mission statement, but it does match that of Dominion Theology. Dominion theology has taken on many names, but it is a distortion of the Great Commission. We have all heard the saying that "Christians want to take the world for Jesus Christ," but these guys really mean it. They want to impose God’s laws carried out by the Church on the world, which is the overt manifestation of His kingdom on Earth. It is a theocracy, and essentially prepares the world for the Antichrist.

The Oak Initiative's purpose statement says that they are a grassroots movement to unite, mobilize, equip, and activate Christians to be the salt and light by engaging in the great issues of our time from a sound biblical worldview. Although it isn't mentioned in the above clip, Dr. Lance Wallnau is on the Board of Oak Initiative. He's the same guy who has the Seven Mountains Mandate plan. The plan is a belief that this world can, and must, be conquered for Christ by militant action undertaken by the Christian Church.

The problem with this plan is that the folks who support the idea of a Second Reformation are the only ones who are in on it. They are the part of the Church with Gnostic tendencies and inflated elitist egos. Inflated, because many of the leadership have declared themselves as prophets.

The other dirty little secret is that Rick Joyner, one of the leaders in the Oak Initiative, is a Knights of Malta, which is a branch of Freemasonry. As you know, Freemasonry worships Lucifer, so this is what would lead one to believe that this is all being done in preparation for the Antichrist.

Their next big event:


By the way it sounds, they must be ready to launch their plan of attack. It is hard to tell if the rest of the Church is ready for it.

Worldview Weekend Radio: Chris Pinto

On Worldview Weekend Radio, Brannon Howe's guest is Chris Pinto. Chris has produced the documentary The Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers, explaining that not all of the founding fathers were Christians. While some of the founders were Christians, men like Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and George Washington were actually hostile to the Gospel while friendly to Christian ideals. 

This message has been hard to swallow, especially since homeschool curriculum, Christian books, and speakers promote the idea that they were all solid Christians. This is an excellent DVD and seen by every Christian.

Listen to the broadcast.

Lt.Gen. (Ret.) W.G. Jerry Boykin: The Church Must Rise Up

In a New Year's Conference presentation at Rick Joyner's church, Retired Lt. Gen. Boykin fuels the lie that our founding fathers were Christian men (10:00) and that the Church is called to build God's kingdom on earth (15:15). General Boykin speaks about how the Church has been passive for too long, and challenges believers to rise up and become a mighty army. (Video link)

In another more recent Morningstar TV video, General Boykin warns that the media has misrepresented what is occurring with the Egyptian revolution. He explained that Mubarak came into power only after Anwar Sadat was executed by the Muslim Brotherhood; brought about by negotiations with Israel, culminating in the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty. Boykin claims that Egypt was a Christian country before Mubarak, at least until it was overtaken. Mubarak has kept the Muslim Brotherhood suppressed since being dictator.

Gen. Boykin goes onto explain that there are presently two countries in the Middle East that are run by Democracy; Israel and Iraq - with the remaining being ruled by dictators. He does not believe that the revolution in Egypt was being driven by pro-Democracy proponents. This is because of the new Muslim Brotherhood leader and the recent statements and actions this new leader has taken.

The one interesting thing he did have to say is that Marxism and Islam run parallel, up to a point. If you look at the theologies of both, they look very much alike.

Concluding Remarks
A few days after Mubarak's resignation, the media is still calling Egypt's new government a Democracy. Although Gen. Boykin viewed the Muslim Brotherhood as a threat, perhaps he was trying to wake-up and rally Rick Warren's dominion group with the scary reality that one day they might have to live under the authority of the Muslim Brotherhood. It was the anti-Muslim rant that any a Freemason would have loved.

In his presentation, he commented that Egypt was once a Christian country, but this is not true. Christianity has always been a small minority in Egypt.


After a little research, I learned who Lt. Gen Boykin is. According to Wikipedia:
"In 2003, Seymour Hersh claimed in the New Yorker (US) that Boykin was a key planner behind Rumsfeld's Special Forces approach to fighting the War on Terror. Furthermore, when Boykin was questioned in a congressional inquiry regarding similarities between current War on Terror special operations and USA's Phoenix Program during the Vietnam War, he said: "I think we’re running that kind of programme. We’re going after these people. Killing or capturing these people is a legitimate mission for the department. I think we’re doing what the Phoenix programme was designed to do, without all of the secrecy." [It was an assassin squad.]

In 2005, Seymour Hersh also claimed that the US had begun to undertake secret, off-the-books, covert missions in Iran to identify key targets for possible strikes in destabilizing their nuclear facilities, and against the larger War on Terror, with the chain of command for the commando operations falling to Rumsfeld, Cambone and Boykin. Hersh claimed these allegations came from "very, very senior" sources, but the Pentagon sharply criticized the article stating that "Mr. Hersh's article is so riddled with errors of fundamental fact that the credibility of his entire piece is destroyed."
As you will see in the Wikipedia write-up, Boykin has long identified Islam as being the enemy. We already know that this is a globalist plan that goes back to Freemason General Albert Pike. So, this should make us wonder if Lt. Gen Boykin is working undercover for the CIA to further the Masonic plan, or perhaps he's brainwashed from working too many military blood baths. My conclusion is that he was fear-mongering at the Morningstar church to rally the New Apostolic Reformation crowd, since there was never any mention of globalism. He must be thinking, "There is nothing like a good battle between the Church and the world!"

Well-meaning Christians are Working to Set up the Antichrist's Kingdom

In her book Tongues, Prosperity and Godhood, Dr. Cathy Burns explains where the false teaching of Kingdom Now, Dominion Theology, and Reconstructionism is leading us. She explains:

"Yes, the Kingdom Now, Dominion Theology, and Reconstructionists believe that mankind must establish the Kingdom of God on earth before Jesus can even return again. So, naturally, they also deny the rapture of the bride of Christ. We must discard the Biblical doctrine of the rapture in order to establish an earthly kingdom. However, there is one major problem in establishing the kingdom here on earth now. According to the Bible, there will be a kingdom on earth, but it will not be God's Kingdom - at least not the kingdom of the Christians' God!

You see, the kingdom that will be established here on earth will be under the rule of the Antichrist! The sad part is that many people who are well-meaning and sincere are working to set up this kingdom for the Antichrist while actually believing that they are working for Christ's Kingdom.

In addition, it is now being taught that this world will continue to get better and better until the whole world is evangelized by the Gospel. For example, David Chilton claims:
"Our rule is going on now, on this earth...and the extent of our rule coincides with the progress of the Gospel. As it increases, so does the dominion of Christians...Eventually, through evangelism, the reign of Christians will become so extensive that 'the earth will be full of the knowledge of God, as the waters cover the sea' (Isa. 11:9). Edenic blessings will abound the world as God's law is increasingly obeyed..." [1]

The Bible, on the other hand, talking about the second coming of Christ, forewarns us:
"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition..." (II Thess. 2:3)
Elsewhere we are told:
"that in the latter time some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron..." (1 Tim. 4:1-2)
II Timothy 3:1 prophecies "that in the last days perilous times shall come." These perilous times will be like this:
"Men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemous, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure more that lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof" from such turn away." (II Timothy 3: 2-5)
Isn't this a perfect description of our day? Is the world really getting better and better with all of the abortion and homosexuality taking place? Are the Christians really coming into power and taking over the world for Christ? According to Daniel, a prophecy for the end time about the Antichrist's rule, reveals that he:
"made war with the saints, and prevailed against them...And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High..." (Daniel 7:21, 25a)
 "they shall deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my names sake...And because iniquity shall about, the love of many shall wax cold...and then shall the end come" (Matt. 24:9, 12, 14b).
Bill Johnson on the "Kingdom Come"
According to Wikipedia, Kingdom Now Theology states that although Satan has been in control of the world since the Fall; God is looking for people who will help him take back dominion. Those who yield themselves to the authority of God's apostles and prophets will take control of the kingdoms of this world, being defined as all social institutions, the "kingdom" of education, the "kingdom" of science, the "kingdom" of the arts, etc. [2]

Bill Johnson, a well-known Word Faith teacher, explains the teaching. I think the Kingdom Now theology would be easier to understand, if it were backed by Scripture. The modern teaching originated in the Latter Rain Movement, and is connected to the New Apostolic Reformation, Spiritual Warfare Christianity, and Fivefold ministry.

Dangers of Dominion Theology - Parts 3 & 4

This broadcast is the remainder of Brannon Howse teaching on the Dangers of Dominion Theology. You can hear his broadcast on WorldviewWeekend.com.

Part 3 - Aired Feb 9, 2011
Part 4 - Aired Feb 10, 2011

These links may not be active after a while.

Important Highlights of the Broadcast
The Assemblies of God have been warning their membership to stay away from churches with Dominion Theology being taught. Terms with new shades of meaning will advance the Kingdom Theology to create a new kingdom on earth. It is a religious Trojan Horse and is laying the foundation for the Antichrist. The Word of Faith movement (Joyce Meyer, Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Rick Joyner, Cindy Jacobs...) is one of the groups who are advancing this teaching. Dr. John MacArthur said:
“The sad truth is that the Gospel proclaimed by the Word Faith movement is not the Gospel of the New Testament. Word Faith doctrine is a mongrel system; a blend of mysticism, dualism, and Gnosticism that borrows generously from the teachings of the metaphysical cults. The Word Faith movement may be the most dangerous false system that has grown out of the Charismatic movement so far, because so many Charismatics are unsure of the finality of Scripture.”

Rick Warren and C. Peter Wagner (New Apostolic Reformation) Connection
C. Peter Wager was Rick Warren's mentor and adviser. He did his D.MIN. in 1993 under C. Peter Wagner at Fuller. Titled: NEW CHURCHES FOR A NEW GENERATION: CHURCH PLANTING TO REACH BABY BOOMERS. A CASE STUDY: THE SADDLEBACK VALLEY COMMUNITY CHURCH (California). In it he wrote “We must establish new churches to reach this new generation of Americans.

The purpose of the Church is going to transitioned from an institutionally-driven church to a missional church. With this change, the Church will bring about the kingdom on earth and take dominion. The emphasis will no longer be on the Great Commission and will be transitioned to taking dominion and social justice.
"Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence [here]." John 18:36
The remainder of the teaching has to do with apostles and prophets, and how the office is closed. We don't need prophets to give us the Word, because it has already been written. The office and the gift are different.

Some Poignant Quotes from Some Dark Sources

Quote by Alice Bailey 
Theosophist and Satan worshipper, Alice Ann Bailey (1831-1891), revealed the Masonic plan in her 1957 volume, The Externalisation of the Hierarchy. Cabalist agents would infiltrate the Christian Church to modify its message, transforming it as an instrument for the Universal Religion of the 21st Century. Alice A. Bailey stated:
“there will appear the Church Universal, and its definite outlines will appear towards the close of this century… This Church will be nurtured into activity by the Christ and His disciples when the outpouring of the Christ principle, the TRUE second Coming has been accomplished… the Christian church in its many branches can serve as a nucleus through which world illumination may be accomplished… the church as a teaching factor should take the great basic doctrines and (shattering the old forms in which they are expressed and held) show their true and inner spiritual significance. The prime work of the church is to teach, and teach ceaselessly, preserving the outer appearance in order to reach the many who are accustomed to church usages. Teachers must be trained; Bible knowledge must be spread; the sacraments must be mystically interpreted, and the power of the church to heal must be demonstrated.” [1]
Benjamin Crème, the spokesman for the Age of Aquarius’ Christ, states:
“Workers in the field of religion will formulate the universal platform of the new world religion. It is a work of living synthesis and will emphasize the unity and the fellowship of the spirit” Reappearance of the Christ,  pp. 168-159
John D. Rockefeller Jr., the same man who helped build Union Theological Seminary, said in 1917:
"I see the Church molding the thought of the world, as it has never done before, leading in all great movements as it should. I see it literally establishing the Kingdom of God on earth."[2]
No separation from heretics
Dr. Richard Land, from the Southern Baptist Convention, and Cindy Jacobs, who is part of the New Apostolic Reformation, are involved in Awakening 2010 together.


Who are these Dominionists are preparing for? It isn't King Jesus Christ. Connect the dots.

Rick Joyner: The Oak Initiative

Within the Morningstar website, Rick Joyner discusses the leadership seminar he has prepared for those to world for Christ. Keynote speaker will be Lt. Gen. (Ret.) W.G. Boykin, and his focus will be on developing leadership tactics for the coming battle within the Church and country. He talks about how Joshua was mentored before he took the land, the importance of a vision, and setting a good example. Joyner realizes he has created the mindset for battle, but he needs more leaders for the dominionist movement to success.

What he doesn't tell his church is that he is accomplishing one of the fundamental steps of creating the one world religion. He leads them to believe they are saving our country, but he surely knows better.

The Oak Initiative is:
a grassroots movement to unite, mobilize, equip, and activate Christians to be the salt and light they are called to be by engaging in the great issues of our time from a sound biblical worldview.
Started by more than 300 Christian leaders from across the spectrum of the body of Christ, within months of its founding, The Oak Initiative had a presence in all 50 states and more than 78 nations, with Oak Gatherings and Oak Chapters springing up rapidly.

Gary North: Meet "Scary Gary"

The late Rousas John Rushdoony and his son-in-law Gary North, were members of the Council for National Policy. [1][2] If you recall, Dominion Theology comes out of Christian Reconstructionism, a fundamentalist creed that was propagated by Rushdoony. Although North was later personally estranged from his father-in-law, he has carried forward Rushdoony’s Calvinist Reconstructionist philosophy and teachings, and further maintains that Christians and Christian churches must become involved in Dominionist-type political activism. [3] 

The significance of being a CNP members is that they have powerful ties with the CIA and the Council on Foreign Relations, not to mention association with high-level Freemasonry for which many believe is related to those bringing in world government. 


A Little About Gary North
Long before North and Rushdoony publicly parted ways, North had already aggressively sought out political influence. In 1976 he worked in Washington, D.C. as a research assistant for Texas Representative Ron Paul. After Paul’s defeat, North wrote a warning to Christians that Washington was a cesspool that can’t be changed overnight. He turned his back on national politics and began developing practical tactics for churches to deploy at the grassroots level.

Unlike Rushdoony, who focused most of his attention on ideas, North worked to pull together Charismatic and Pentecostal congregations in the South. It was in an effort to fuse Reconstructionism’s grassroots activism with committed congregations.

North believes that when American society collapses under the combined weight of massive foreign debt, military overstretch, and internal decadence, he hopes to have a network of churches ready to step into the breech, apparently to take dominion. In preparation, he has written book after book aimed at educating Christians on how to live debt free, avoid electronic surveillance, and develop the skills necessary for surviving economic collapse. “In short, North’s version of Reconstructionism blazed a path for the militia and Christian survivalist groups of the 1990s to follow.” [4]

Y2K
Prior to the year 2000, North predicted that the Y2K computer glitch would lead to the total collapse of the global economy, leaving Christians in the United States to pick up the pieces. North's articles and rhetoric eventually earned him the nickname "Scary Gary."

North's believes in a fusion of libertarianism and postmillenarian eschatology, and it is sharply different than Rushdoony's view. Rushdoony envisioned the church and family as two separate, exclusive spheres. For Rushdoony, the family is the primary social unit while the church represents a limited ecclesiastical organization of believers in Christ. Conversely, North believes men owed their allegiances to a church first and the family second. [3]

Theonomy
The books North has written and co-authored range with some interesting titles, and they obviously reflect their contents, as well as his ideas. In the book Christian Reconstuctionism, he said,
"In winning a nation to the gospel, the sword as well as the pen must be used."

Dominion theology, is a type of theonomy. Theonomy posits that the Biblical Law is applicable to civil law, and theonomists propose Biblical law as the standard by which the laws of nations may be measured, and to which they ought to be conformed.

Theonomists support public policy changes in accord with Biblical principles, but see those changes as coming about as a result of the conversions to Christianity in the coming days. Many seek a future earthly "Kingdom of God" in which much of the world is converted to Christianity (Dominion Theology). They cite the numerous scripture passages referring to God's collective judgment upon unrighteous nations, and God's blessing upon those rulers and societies heeding His Word. The presence or absence of Christian values may profoundly influence the rise and fall of nations.[4]

Civil Law today stems from Biblical Law, but the punishment if far more harsh than what exists today. In accordance with Theonomy, Sabbath breakers are put to death, children are stoned for certain offenses, but at the same time they feel it protects the accused.

For more about Theonomy, go here.

The Faith of Adams & Jefferson

Christians have been fed a lie for many years concerning the faith of our founding fathers. I posted on the topic about a week ago, and have since then received the book containing the letters between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. The following are quotes that directly pertain to their faith. I think that we can conclude that they are not Christian.

Letter: Adams to Jefferson, Quincy, July 16th, 1813 -
"In your Letter to Priestly on March 21, 1801, dated at Washington you call "The Christian Philosophy, the most sublime and benevolent, but the most perverted System that ever shone on Man." That is the most sublime and benevolent, I agree. But whether it has been more perverted than that of Mosse, of Confucius, or Zoroaster, of Sanchoniathan of Numa, of Mahomet of the Druids, of the Hindoos ect, ect, ect. I cannot as yet determine; because I am not sufficiently acquainted with those Systems or the History of their Effect to form a decisive Opinion of the result of the Comparison."
Letter: Jefferson to Adams, Monticello, Jan. 24, 1814 -
"Where get we the ten commandments? The book indeed gives them to us verbatim. But where did it get them? For itself tells us they were written by the finger of god on tables of stone, which were destroyed by Moses: it specifies those on the 2d. set of tables in different form and substance, but still without saying how the others were recovered. But the whole history of these books is so defective and doubtful that it seems vain to attempt minute enquiry into it: and such tricks have been plaid with their text, and with the texts of other books relation to them, that we have a right, from that cause, to entertain much doubt what parts of them are genuine. In the New testament there is internal evidence that parts of it have proceeded from an extraordinary man; and that other parts are of the fabric of very inferior minds. It is as easy to separate those parts, as to pick out diamonds from dunghills."
Letter: Adams to Jefferson, Quincy, 23rd January 1825 -
"The Europeans are all deeply tainted with prejudices both Ecclesiastical, and Temporal which they can never get rid of; they are all infected with Episcopal and Presbyterian Creeds, and confessions of faith. They all believe that great principle, which has produced this boundless Universe. Newton's Universe, and Hershells universe, came down to this little Ball, to be spit-upon by Jews; and untill this awful blasphemy is got rid of, there will never be any liberal science in the world."
The author of this book has written an introduction to each chapter, which precedes a handful of letters. He has read the content of each of the letters and draws this conclusion:
"In religion as in science of politics the two retired statesmen could turn philosophers without effort. But their frank discussion of religion, it should be remembered, was confined to their private correspondence. Their sharp condemnation of the priestcraft, their ridicule of the mystical Trinity as untenable by rational men, and their use of historical criticism to distinguish fact from "revelation" would have raised public furor. Under the aegis of the Enlightenment, freedom of thought won least recognition in the field of religion and theology. To Adams and Jefferson the achievement of religious freedom in most of the states during the Revolution and the adoption of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States had done more, they hoped, than establish a grudging toleration. They insisted on the ultimate truth "that Almighty God hath created the mind free."
                    Lester F. Cappon, The Adams-Jefferson Letters
Why have Christians been led to believe these men were Christians? Christian J. Pinto, the writer and director of the DVD titled The Hidden Faith of the Founding Fathers, spoke on the topic. He said that this was a way to draw Christians away from God and have them focus on politics. This may be so, but there is something else happening here. 

The Christian Nationalism movement, a byproduct of Dominion Theology, which asserts that in preparation for the second coming of Christ, godly men have the responsibility to take over every aspect of society. Dominion Theology comes out of Christian Reconstructionism, a fundamentalist creed that was propagated by the late Rousas John Rushdoony and his son-in-law, Gary North.

Reconstructionists, the ones leading the deception, believe in postmillennial theology; meaning its followers believe Jesus won't return until after Christians establish a thousand year reign on earth. While other Christians wait for the messiah, Reconstructionists want to build the kingdom themselves.


The doctrine of Dominion/Kingdom Now Theology and their purpose for rebuilding our country as a Christian nation in which ours has been founded country (the lie), have been promoted in Christian homeschool curriculum and the Church. Many Christians don't believe in Dominion Theology, once they learn what it is, but they do believe our country was founded by Christians, which provides the Reconstuctionists with the fuel to feed their beliefs.
"Many if not most Christians following Dominion Theology leaders will be surprised to know it. For example, almost all of “Word of Faith” leaders are dominionists. The “Christian Right” has many dominionist leaders, especially those that are pushing ecumenicalism and those that teach that we need to take the nation or the world for Christ. Liberal Christians pushing ecumenicalism often are dominionists. Dominion Theology teachers lead a large segment of the Charismatic and Pentecostal movements. Much of the leadership of the “Promise Keepers” mens movement embraces Dominion Theology. Much of the “seeker friendly purpose driven” church growth movement has a dominionist world social agenda. The Catholic Church has a Dominion worldview. Even the ultra right Christian patriot and the Christian identity cults believe the unbiblical worldview of Dominion Theology." [1]
Do you believe it matters that our country was founded by Christians? The Puritans laid good ground when they came to this land. There were revivals that kept the hearts of men towards God. Jefferson helped the Christians by adding the Freedom of Religion, but it was primarily provided to gain the support of the people for the Revolution.

We Christians are such a trusting, sorry bunch.

Dominion Theology: Lance Wallnau

Watch Lance Wallnau through this link on Morningstar TV. This is the man with the plan.

Wallnau's plan to create the next revival and reformation.
The Great Commission (Matthew 28:19) is regarded as an inherent part of the dominion mandate, with the express implication that entire nations should be discipled and that Christ’s authority over all the Earth should become manifest through the Church which is His body. All people will, in all walks of life, benefit from the imposing of God’s laws by the Church, which is the overt manifestation of His kingdom on Earth. This is a distortion of the Great Commission.

Matthew 28:19 is not a dominion mandate as it only involves the proclamation of the Gospel among all nations. Christ cautioned His disciples against expectations that entire nations would repent and enter the kingdom of God: “Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it” (Matt. 7:14; cf. Luke 13:23-24). Repentance is an act in which individuals accept the saving grace of the Lord Jesus in faith – a government can’t do it on behalf of all its citizens. Even if certain political leaders are saved, that does not mean that the entire government is constituted of saved persons who will serve the Lord with one accord, thereby giving political expression to Christian dominionism.

Because of the connection Rick Joyner has with the Knights of Malta (Catholic church), I believe he will succeed with creating a revival, and he will assist in unifying the body of Christ into one Church. Dominionists distort Christ’s injunction that we should be one as He and the Father are one (John 17:11,21). They interpret this command structurally rather than spiritually. To them, the spiritual bond among believers should manifest ecumenically by working towards the realization of a united world church. The spiritual bond in the united family of churches, particularly in the WCC, is very weak and poorly defined to avoid offending any of its constituent denominations. In this way, they have only succeeded in achieving a predominantly nominal form of Christianity with an outward form of godliness, but denying the regenerating power of the Holy Spirit (2 Tim. 3:5). They may have a kingdom vision to change the world in terms of their own agenda but they are not used of God. Paul clearly admonishes true Christians to leave the ranks of nominal believers: “From such turn away!” (2 Tim. 3:5). Structural unity should not be pursued when it compromises one’s faith. Rather depart from them: “For there must also be factions among you, that those who are approved may be recognized among you” (1 Cor. 11:19).

The Next Great Awakening. . . Or Great Deadening?

"At first blush, Jeremy Rifkin would hardly seem to be talking about Dominion Theology. After all, he advocates the paradigm of 'entropy.' Our mission as humans, this New Ager says, is to 'dress and keep the earth.' Rifkin calls this the "stewardship paradigm.' The Dominion theologians, on the other hand, such as Rushdoony and Gary North, say that our mission is to 'subdue the earth.' What do these two have in common? It is the pointing of their respective camps into preparation for revolution at approximately the same time, with both sides being convinced they will control the outcome. Both planned a significant role for the charismatics in advancing their mission.... While Dominionist theologian Gary North has been critical of Rifkin, he has nonetheless been following a Rifkinesque scenario of bringing the revolution he envisions to birth – both in terms of planned use of evangelicals and charismatics."
–Constance Cumbey, "THE PLOT TO USE THE CHARISMATICS"

What does the Emergent Church have in common with the New Apostolic Reformation? Everything! They are two sides of the same coin.

The same template has been followed for both – the very same blueprint was used from day one. The rising political power and influence of the New Apostolic Reformation, and the simultaneous growth of the Emergent Church movement, is no accident. It was planned all along. And New Ager Jeremy Rifkin wrote the "blueprint" for it!

This blueprint for an "emerging order" was published as a book, significantly in the year 1979, just after the Evangelical Consultations on the Future,[2] and before the rapid rise of the political Right in the early 1980s. Titled The Emerging Order: God in the Age of Scarcity,[3] Rifkin's book, at first blush, appears to be a manifesto for environmental stewardship. And that is indeed one of its objectives. But that's not its full purpose, as New Age expert, author Constance Cumbey, noted. She wrote about it in her book A Planned Deception,[4] where she explained how Rifkin had passed himself off as a Christian during the era in which The Emerging Order was published:

"Rifkin has deceived many Christians and he has used his friendship with Pat Robertson to help do it. In 1980 Robertson praised Rifkin's Entropy unpublished manuscript. (p. 157)


"Pat Robertson sent a newsletter endorsing that book while it was still an unpublished manuscript! Pat Robertson's Perspective of June/July 1980, rather than exposing this horrible threat to Christianity, almost made it sound Christian...." (p. 161)

Cumbey detailed the many New Age connections and philosophies embraced by Rifkin, and then explained that "Rifkin also wrote The Emerging Order. There he made it clear that the evangelical church would be their primary instrument to bring the new world order to birth." (p. 162)

Rifkin's book was touted as a blueprint. The cover jacket for The Emerging Order states, "In this provocative book, the authors provide a blueprint for American culture that is staggering in its implications. Beyond being yet another indictment of the liberal welfare state, their thesis points to a major cultural reformation in which religion will play a leading role in the rearrangement of our nation's priorities."

The book was also called "a blueprint for the economic and spiritual challenges facing the Christian community in the remainder of this century" by Senator Mark Hatfield, a key member of the secretive Washington Fellowship ("The Family").[5] Hatfield's endorsement of the book may become increasingly significant.

"A "second Protestant reformation" –
"a great religious awakening"

In the introduction to The Emerging Order, Rifkin lays out his blueprint, stating that he believed that "we are in the early morning hours of a second Protestant reformation" which is evident by "the shift now taking place in Protestant doctrine."(p. ix) In the late 1970s, noticing the rapid rise of "church renewal" that was taking place across America, he expressed the hope that this event would "give form to a new theological construct; one whose sweep is so broad that it could well consume the theological world view of the Reformation." (p. ix) He wanted to hitch a ride on the renewal train, and his blueprint told how to commandeer the train and turn it onto a new track.

This seemed impossible at the time. But Rifkin outlined a specific plan. He proposed jumpstarting a "second Reformation" with the missing element of mysticism. The emphasis on the "supernatural" would "provide a bridge" to acceptance of both new doctrines and a global economic transformation, he suggested. The basic blueprint for using mysticism was articulated as follows:

"Today's Christian renewal movement is a two-pronged phenomenon. First, there are the millions upon millions of Charismatics, whose belief in supernatural gifts of faith healing, speaking in tongues, and prophesy represents a monumental assault on the modern age itself. For the Charismatics, these supernatural powers are beginning to replace science, technique and reason as the critical reference points for interpreting one's day-to-day existence. If this unconscious challenge to the modern world view continues to intensify, it could provide the kind of liberating force that could topple the prevailing ethos and provide a bridge to the next age of history." (p. x)

The blueprint also called for a corresponding more rational approach, a pseudo-intellectualism that could concoct new doctrines, especially doctrines that would lead Christians to embrace a "new covenant vision" and a "new world view."

"While the Charismatics are generating a potential liberating impulse, the more mainline evangelical movement is beginning to provide the necessary reformulation of theological doctrine that is essential for the creation of a new covenant vision and a new world view." (p. x)

What was to be the key doctrinal shift for this Emerging Order? Rifkin identified Dominionism, especially the early chapters in Genesis, as the core doctrine that must be "redefined." The process of "redefining" Dominionism is explained in this manner:

"God's very first commandment to humankind in the book of Genesis is being redefined. Its redefinition changes the entire relationship of human beings to both God and the temporal world. In the beginning, God says to Adam 'have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.' 'Dominion,' which Christian theology has for so long used to justify people's unrestrained pillage and exploitation of the natural world, has suddenly and dramatically been reinterpreted. Now, according to the new definition of dominion, God's first instruction to the human race is to serve as a steward and protector over all of his creation." (p. x)

Note how easily this "redefinition" of Dominion caught on. There was virtually no opposition to this heresy!

"It is interesting to observe that this most fundamental reconception of God's first order to his children on earth has been accepted by Protestant scholars, ministers and practitioners in just a few short years without any significant opposition being voiced. In fact, one would be hard pressed to find a leading Protestant scholar anywhere today who would openly question this new interpretation of dominion in the Book of Genesis.... While it is true that the new interpretation of dominion is also being promulgated by the mainline Protestant denominations and the Catholic Church, it is the evangelical community, with its resurgent spiritual vitality, that has the momentum, drive and energy that is required to achieve this radical theological transformation in American society." (p. x-xi)

Rifkin was right. Protestant and Catholic scholars had begun developing this Dominion theology. But by the mid-1970s, changing doctrines had also become a major project of Fuller Theological Seminary and its evangelical cohorts. C. Peter Wagner, Ralph Winter, and other professors began to chip away at traditional orthodoxy, slowly concocting a strange brew of ever-evolving progressive "revelations," heading towards an outright Dominionist theology. Thanks to Ralph Winter, Mission Frontiers, and the U.S. Center for World Mission, the "redefinition" teachings of Dominionism were standard fare in the global mission movement by the mid-1990s.

But all of this activity was still missing a critical ingredient Rifkin had identified as necessary to shift over to "a great religious awakening" – the mysticism. He wrote:

"If the Charismatic and evangelical strains of the new Christian renewal movement come together and unite a liberating energy with a new covenant vision for society, it is possible that a great religious awakening will take place, one potentially powerful enough to incite a second Protestant reformation." (p. xi)

Here it was, The Master Plan for the next "great religious awakening." It took one man, C. Peter Wagner, to ignite the fuse according the plan laid out in Rifkin's blueprint. Wagner became a key player in a confluence that began to have massive repercussions throughout the rest of evangelicalism. It began to take off when John Wimber of the Vineyard Movement connected with the Kansas City "prophets," part of the old Latter Rain cult. John Wimber had previously been hand-picked as an “experiment” by C. Peter Wagner as part of his Fuller Theological Seminary class on “signs and wonders.” Wimber’s connection to the Kansas City group proved to be the catalyst for the beginnings of "The Third Wave," what C. Peter Wagner was to later call the “New Apostolic Reformation.” In short order the esoteric doctrines of the Latter Rain movement trickled into mainstream evangelicaldom and gradually became an integral part of the postmodern evangelical canon. And because of Wagner’s influence, Latter Rain leaders such as Mike Bickle and Rick Joyner, who were obscure in 1991, are now widely known throughout evangelicalism. The Latter Rain cult, most notable for its anomalous signs and wonders, would pick up steam and continue to provide the necessary "powerful," "liberating energy" to fuel the blueprint.

Jeremy Rifkin's "great religious awakening" went a step further. It called for a "new Protestant conservation ethic, ready-made for the new age of scarcity the world is moving into."(p. xi) To accomplish this he called for a "great economic transformation," an "economic shift," the intended result of the "theological spark" created by "the evangelical awakening that is spreading across America and... the... second Protestant reformation emerging between now and the year A.D. 2000."(p. xii) This economic shift would be nothing less than a global redistribution of wealth. This theme was dutifully picked up by the New Apostolic Reformation as an abiding prophecy, and continues to gather steam as it co-mingles with Dominionism.[6]

There was still another missing ingredient. It took an entire generation to come up with it, but after oodles of money, gigantic publishing contracts, and massive stealth "change agent" training, Leadership Network became a leading player in the more mainstream evangelical world. It began by dialectically facilitating both components of the blueprint for transformation. It developed a church structure that modeled corporations in a form of extreme pragmatism that rewrote the basic biblical doctrines of "church." It then hijacked the consumer-driven train and turned the church into its own marketing agent for the blueprint. And it simultaneously launched the Emergent Church movement, which added the necessary pizazz of mysticism to blunt rational thought. Its leading Emergent spokesperson from early on, Brian McLaren, would serialize Rifkin's blueprint in his successive books, each more fine-tuned than the last, systematically destroying the old order theology while laying the groundwork for the new order theology.[7]

Just how did Rifkin propose to implement such a monumental scheme? In 1980 it seemed far-fetched and nearly impossible. But the whole blueprint is fully operational today, thirty years later, and no longer a plan but a reality.

To be continued. . . .

Joel's Army & The Call


The Call is a movement emphasizing prayer, worship and fasting for spiritual breakthrough in our country. Lou Engle, the founder of The Call, believes the nation is being held accountable for how it is being run. The nation and the Church are buckling under an escalating spiritual and moral crisis. They want to see revival in our land, but I'm not so sure I want these people leading it. This is because Lou Engle preaches the Latter Day Rain heresies – which of course the Kansas City Prophets are fully steeped in.

The Call has ties to Joel's Army, the same folks who seek Charismatic revolution in the Church. Joel's Army believers are hard-core Christian dominionists, meaning they believe that America, along with the rest of the world, should be governed by conservative Christians and a conservative Christian interpretation of biblical law. [1]

In my opinion, the coming New Apostolic Reformation revolution within the Church is dependent upon the need for another revival, similar to that of the Lakeland revival in Florida - but bigger. On September 3rd-4th, The Call will be meeting in Sacramento. It will commemorate the 10th anniversary of the first meeting, which was located in Washington, DC, when 400,000 young people showed up for the cause.

The connection between The Call and the C. Peter Wagner's New Apostolic Reformations "Joel's Army" is evident by the people participating in the rally, such as his minions: Bill Johnson and Dutch Sheets.

The leadership seems to be fully focused on our young people. Young people have been notorious agents of change, which is why Socialists/Communists use them to bring about revolution. 

On the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders is Cindy Jacobs.  On August 14, 2000, Jacobs issued “A Prophetic Call to Revolution” to Christian youth. This prophecy foretold that certain churches would become official “command posts for revolution” and that God now was calling “radical revolutionaries to the church.”
(Speaking for the Lord:) “For I would say to you, my children, there is a page turning in the heavenlies, and at the top of this page I have one word, and it's 'revolution.' And I am getting ready to write a new page of history among the believers of this nation...." "...And the Lord says, I am calling for an invasion from these churches, from my command posts. And the Lord says get ready, get ready, get ready, for it begins today.”
Since learning about the New Apostolic Reformation and Joel's Army, I began to wonder about the recent teaching in the Church on fear. Several Word of Faith teachers such as Joyce Meyer, Kenneth Copeland and many others have focused on overcoming fear. Many people do have fear in their lives, but unlike the fear brought about when fighting as a revolutionary.

Within one of the websites Cindy Jacobs is associated with, it shows a series that she teaches on fear. The description reads: "Nations all over the world have seen change by understanding and applying these principles. Fearless will equip you to walk in your faith victorious and as an agent of transformation." [2]

It is hard to determine whether they have to power to steer the Church with their agenda. I'm going to speculate that since Rick Joyner and his connection with Knights of Malta factors into this, I suspect they will.
