Konspiracy Koncepts: The Psy-op.

   Let me tell ya a little story! When I was a kid in Grammar School, we read some of Aesop's Fables, and one of them went like this: One day, the Sun and the Wind were hanging out, and, being a couple of Alpha Males, soon got into it over which of them were the most powerful.  Blah, blah, blah, the Sun says, "OK, Windbag we'll see. You see that dude down there in the crappy coat? Whoever can get his coat off him is the winner, and the other guy has to buy coffee. Or beer."  So the Wind be like, "No problem! Watch this!" And he starts huffing and puffing to blow the dude's jacket off him. Only the harder he blows, the tighter the dude wraps his coat around him. So the Sun says, "OK, my turn." , and starts shining brighter and warmer. After a while the dude is so hot, he takes the jacket off. And the Sun is all, "Yea-ah!"
   We are embarking on a study I call Konspiracy Koncepts, in which I'll I'll try to list and explain the basic concepts behind modern conspiracy theory. I just gave you one of them.  So why bother? Why do you need to know this stuff? First, so you can make an informed decision for yourself whether this stuff is "nuts", or whether anything weird is really going on. How can you judge the Truth Movement if you don't know what they believe, or why?
   More importantly, we have an enemy, and we need to know how he operates. "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices."  , Paul wrote to the Corinthian Church. Jesus taught us in Luke 16:8, "...the sons of this age  are shrewder and more prudent and wiser in [relation to]  their own generation [to their own age and kind]  than are the sons of light "  Whaaaat? The Devil's children are smarter than the children of God?
   Christ further urged His disciples to " be as wise as serpents"  (Matthew 10:16).  The angel told Daniel, "none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand"  prophetic messages and their fulfillment (Daniel 12: 10). And the well-known passage from Revelation 13: 18---"Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the Beast..."  So my purpose here is inform the reader of the concepts that drive conspiracy theory. To make you wiser. I'm not talking about letting you in on secrets, because nothing I'm saying here is secret! And I don't know any secrets!!!
    Good? Then what's all this stuff with the Sun and Wind?  I didn't forget, just wanted you to think about it a minute. It's simple, and it's a basic conspiracy concept.  Here it is. The rulers of this world know that if they try to take something from the people by force, we will resist.  So instead they use persuasion.
   Suppose they want our guns? If they come in like the Wind, to take away our arms by force, we will fight back tooth and nail. So, they gonna play the Sun and try to get us to "warm up" to the idea.  Imagine some gun-totin' madman blasts 20 adorable children and 6 courageous teachers into hamburger with a bad-ass machine gun. We'll be like, "Come, Governor Malloy, Senator Blumenthal, President Obama, take these horrible guns away!"  This is the idea behind a false flag or psy-op.   We gave up rights to privacy for security after the WTC attacks, like the dude taking off his coat in the hot Sun.
   Wait a minute, if all this junk about mind-control and government brain-washing were real, wouldn't the Bible tell us? Then listen to what it does tell us. What do you know, or think you know, about the Mark of the Beast? Let's read the passage again, this time keeping in mind the Sun and the Wind fable.

"And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast,  that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great... to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads"  Revelation 13: 15-16)

   Notice that this walkin', talkin' image doesn't kill the non-worshippers itself, but causes someone else to kill them!  Nor does it  force the people to be stamped with the mark, but causes them to receive it!!  It makes them want to get it, and to give up their eternal lives just like the man gave up his coat for what the Sun was giving him.

   The Press and the Media act like the Sun in that fable to mold public opinion! They use celebrities to tell us what we want, what we love, what we hate, and what we protest. Remember that the animated image John saw caused people to receive the mark. They'll camp out for it like it was the newest I-phone! They've been brain-washed for generations now since the end of WWII....first radio, the movies and television, finally the Internet, all telling them what to think, believe, and want.

   "They live, we sleep!"

   Now that you understand the concept, you can judge for yourself whether this principle from Aesop's fable is being applied. Maybe it's not so nuts?

   More next time.

Peace.

Konspiracy Koncepts

   Well Conspiracy Theory is certainly becoming a hot topic in the Media and Press, so we're going to take a little time and do a series going over the basic conspiracy concepts. It seems like you almost never hear the word "conspiracy" without the word "nut" attached to it.  But is it nuts? What if I told you the Bible itself declares there is a global conspiracy?
   There is a prophecy in the Old Testament, repeated (and partially fulfilled) in the New Testament: it is Psalm 2:1-3 and Acts 4:25-27.

"Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against His Anointed, saying, 'Let us break Their bands asunder, and cast away Their cords from us.'"

   So the governments and the common people together unite and plan for the purpose of breaking free from God's dominion and control. They want to run the world their way. Or someone's way. But they don't want God in charge. Let's see.....who they gonna get to take His place?

   It turns out somebody volunteered. Satan's mission statement is laid out in Isaiah 14:13-14.

"...I will ascend into Heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High." So here we have the chief conspirator, Lucifer, with his megalomaniacal scheme  to overthrow God. Think he can pull that off without a little help from a bunch of fallen angels and humans???

   And, Hello, Christians, did you just hear Satan announce his plans to infiltrate and run the Church? No, it went right over your heads. Listen: I will sit also upon ther mount of the congregation.  You say, "No way, Matt: Jesus said the gates of Hell would never prevail against His Church."  Right, and they won't prevail against the true church. But that doesn't stop Satan from setting up a false one. Haven't you read the Parable of the Tares?  That's a key Konspiracy Koncept right there- that Satan would raise up counterfeit Christians.

   And what about this idea that the wealthiest of the wealthy are buddying up together to get themselves more of our wealth? Hear the Apostle James: "Go to now ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you...Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth....Ye have condemned and killed the just."  James 5: 1-6

So not only are the rich men cheating their workers, but apparently bumping off whistleblowers who seek to expose their evil deeds. But did you notice what else they're doing?

   James says the rich men are stockpiling their assets for something that's going down in the last days.  Our days! Folks, that's a multi-generational conspiracy. Satan didn't start building his New World Order in 1776. Paul tells us, "the mystery of iniquity doth already work" (2 Thessalonians 2:7) And John adds, "...this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world" (1 John 4:3)

   And it gets deeper, and darker, and creepier. Because this conspiracy isn't just between kings and people, but involves the collusion of demons as well. Don't take my word for it, listen to God's word. "And I saw three loathsome spirits like frogs, [leaping] from the mouth of the dragon and from the mouth of the beast, and from the mouth of the false prophet. For really they are the spirits of demons that perform signs (wonders, miracles). And they go forth to the rulers and leaders all over the world, to gather them together for war on the great day of God the Almighty."  (Revelation 16:13-14, AMP)

   These frog-like entities are what are commonly known as the "Grey Aliens" (but really they are demons) who are performing signs, wonders and miracles- not of magic, but through technology  they give us. And notice that they are uniting the nations! They gather leaders from all over the world together! Love! Unity! Tolerance! I know, we'll call it "The United Nations"! Yeah, the UN is a huge part of conspiracy theory.

   Bottom line, modern conspiracy theories of one-world government, religion, and economy come right off the pages of your Bible. So it's not nuts. Although there are "nuts" involved in the "Truth Movement" who say nutty things.  We'll get into that. What's a schill? What's a psy-op? What's a false flag? You may hear these terms and not really know what they mean. So I'm going to take the next few blogs here to explain it the best I can, nice guy that I am.

    And remember, whatever is or isn't going on out there, this one thing you can be sure of: Jesus Christ will be with us, even unto the end of this age. Amen.
