My New Year’s Resolution for 2019

The first official “gay agenda” was issued in 1972 from a conference of 200 LGBT organizations in Chicago. It was essentially a list of political demands to the federal and state governments.  You should take a moment and review this short document, keeping in mind that neither the LGBT movement, nor its political allies, have ever publicly repudiated it.

Over the years, thanks to relentless pressure in the form of cultural warfare, nearly every demand has been met. Only three items on the list of demands for states remain:

• “3. Repeal all state laws prohibiting solicitation for private voluntary sexual liaisons; and laws prohibiting prostitution, both male and female. …
• 7. Repeal of all laws governing the age of sexual consent.
• 8. Repeal of all legislative provisions that restrict the sex or number of persons entering into a marriage unit; and the extension of legal benefits to all persons who cohabit regardless of sex or numbers.”

My focus today is on #7, which addresses so-called “Childrens’ Rights,” which is the globalist euphemism for pedophilia and pederasty. In my use of the terms, pedophilia regards adult sexual relations with minors, but especially pre-pubescent children, while pederasy regards adult sexual relations with teenagers as an aspect of “gay” male culture, although pederasty can also be considered a sub–category of pedophilia.

After Justice Anthony Kennedy declared “gay marriage” to be a constitutional right by judicial fiat in the Obergefell v Hodges case (the 4th of his landmark rulings establishing “gay supremacy” in America), the LGBT movement triumphantly planted its rainbow flag of conquest on the grave of true marriage and its war machine moved on to force the normalization of transgenderism, pedophilia and pederasty on America.

Most Americans don’t recognize the implicit pedophilic premise in the push for transgenderism, which is why I am grateful for the recent notoriety of the child drag-queen “Desmond is Amazing” who dances like a gay bar stripper for men who shower him with money. It should be remembered that the Stonewall Riot of 1969 (which launched the present era of “gay supremacist” militancy) was triggered by a police raid to arrest a boy drag-queen at the Stonewall “gay” bar in Manhattan. This is not new to American “gay” culture, which has always had a strong pedophile component, starting with its founder, Harry Hay.

Central to the transgender agenda is the “childrens’ rights” argument: that minors who identify as the opposite sex have a legal and moral right to live that identity and to conform their physiology to their fantasy through powerful puberty-blocking drugs and surgery. Sadly, this is not just rhetoric but actual practice, as the LGBT movement and Blue-State power-brokers steamroll over a weakened Christian resistance. (It is all the more disturbing in that the LGBT movement is simultaneously pushing through state laws denying children self-determination in seeking reparative therapy to overcome unwanted same-sex attraction and no one in the mainstream media notes the hypocrisy.)

This brings me to the issue of the Boy Scouts of America. It was the Wall Street Journal which recently broke the story that the Boy Scout were on the road to bankruptcy, blaming [man/boy] sex abuse lawsuits as the cause – with no mention of the Boy Scouts decision to open the leadership and membership to open homosexuals. When readers began to comment on that omission, the WSJ abruptly and uncharacteristically closed the comments on that story (a “gay” fox in the WSJ editorial henhouse, perhaps?).

The final nail in the BSA coffin was the decision to bend yet further to LGBT bullying and drop the name “Boy” from Boy Scouts, to be more “inclusive” of transgenders. The Mormons have since given notice that their nearly half million members will officially leave the “Scouts” by the end of 2019.

Importantly, the BSA was NOT forced to embrace homosexuality and transgenderism by a court order. They actually won the case of Dale v Boy Scouts of America at the Supreme Court, which acknowledged their hybrid constitutional right of “expressive association” to exclude homosexual scout leaders. No, it was relentless political pressure and harassment of the Boy Scouts organization by the “gays” that led to their surrender. That, and deep-state sabotage by former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, whom the Boy Scouts foolishly allowed into top leadership. They, led by Gates who had just done the same to the US military in the repeal of ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, then orchestrated the take-down of the scouts.

Disturbingly, the BSA takedown was prophesied by Leland Stevenson, Co-Recording Secretary of the North America Man/Boy Love Association (America’s most notorious pedophile organization), in its NAMBLA Bulletin, November 1992, who wrote: “At its 16th membership conference, held in Chicago, August 7-9-1992, the North American Man/Boy Love Association unanimously adopted the following resolution:

‘NAMBLA calls on the Boy Scouts of America to cease its discrimination against openly gay or lesbian persons in the appointment of its scout masters. This will permit scouts to be exposed to a variety of lifestyles and will permit more of those individuals who genuinely wish to serve boys to do so. I feel especially honored to have been asked to alert you of this resolution…I have also been a scout and a scout leader and share with so many in NAMBLA affection for the movement. We recognize, of course, that the action for which we call is inevitable. What a great added contribution your organization will make possible to all the boys and girls who participate in it when you take this step.’ ”

My focus for almost three decades had been on the battle to prevent the mainstreaming of homosexuality, and I perceived transgenderism as a less-threatening add-on, a sort-of mop-up operation after our defeat at Obergefell. But as the transgender battle has progressed, I have seen my error. Transgenderism is more, not less destructive than homosexuality because it attacks a more fundamental aspect of our humanity: the truth that we are created male and female in God’s image.

Homosexual normalization undermines the Biblical model of heterosexual complementarity and the natural family, but transgender normalization undermines the binary heterosexual order itself.  It represents a sea-change in our perspective of what it means to be human: opening the Pandora’s Box of transhumanism, the blending of humans, animals and machines through the combined sciences of genetics, robotics and artificial intelligence: Man becoming his own god.

I must admit that I did not foresee transgenderism as the vehicle for normalizing pedophilia and pederasty. The LGBT lobby could easily have focused on adult choices, not those of children. But now it makes perfect sense, because mainstreaming the idea of sexual autonomy in and to children, with programs like Drag Queen Story Hour at public schools and libraries, subtly advances transhumanism, which has always been the hidden satanic end-game. If childrens’ minds can be successfully turned from reality to fantasy through the doctrine of gender fluidity, and children (backed by adult advocates) embrace the notion that their childhood gender choices are a legal and moral right, then an entire generation (“coincidentally” being raised on movies featuring children with super-human powers and abilities perhaps now attainable by medical “enhancement”) will have been prepped to become willing guinea pigs in the transition to transhumanism.

And in this heady dawn of a new era emphasizing “childrens’ rights,” it’s a small step for the LGBT movement to finally push through Item 7 in the 1972 Gay Rights Platform: the legal and moral right of children to choose adults as sexual partners.  In the emerging world of “choose your own reality, as long as it’s not Biblical,” what’s to stop it?

In the light of this analysis, my New Year’s Resolution for 2019, is to redouble my commitment to fight for Biblical Truth and the Natural Order of Creation using every skill, talent and resource at my disposal. I ask for your support.

Christianity is in terrible crisis across the western world. Christendom – the collective multi-denominational body of believers in Jesus Christ – has been outmaneuvered and marginalized as a cultural force by our Marxist adversaries. Their Humanist religion now holds sway over nearly all the seats of “secular” power and the infra-structure of Judeo-Christian civilization is being systematically refashioned to conform to politically-correct Humanist doctrines.

Humanist strategists have created and unleashed an army of aggressive sexual anarchists to eliminate residual biblical Christianity from within the society, whose campaign victories are marked by rainbow flags of conquest over formerly Christian churches. And they have also created armies of Islamist and Third World “refugees” to invade and overwhelm Christian nations from without to further dilute the influence of Biblical Christianity and soften resistance to a global Socialist order ruled by Humanists.

Shamefully, much of the church has retreated behind its walls in response to these threats, justifying itself with the un-biblical mantra that “politics is too dirty.”

In Biblical history, God responded to crises like this by raising up “judges” – chosen for their suitability to the specific task and adversary at hand. None of those leaders would have passed the test of moral and doctrinal purity demanded of present day political candidates by the today’s church, but they were nevertheless chosen by God, warts and all. For the “dirty” arena of politics, God chose men and women suited to that battlefield.

There are no examples of political involvement by His followers from the New Testament, only the Old Testament. But that Old Testament guidance was specifically endorsed for New Testament-era Christians by the Apostle Paul, in 2 Timothy 3:16.

In this season of crisis God has raised up President Donald Trump. President Trump, a bare-knuckle fighter in the mold of Samson (who openly invokes the name of Jesus Christ and sponsors regular Bible study in the White House), is the clearest example of an Old Testament-style Judge in America since Washington or Lincoln. And like Samson, he is tasked with defeating powerful deeply-entrenched Philistines.

Trump is not the person whom the church would have chosen, but he is obviously the man God has chosen, and the fate of Christendom throughout the West – and of Israel in the Middle East — is closely tied to the fate of his presidency.

Judeo-Christian America was on the brink of disaster in the prospect of a Hillary Clinton presidency, but God gave us a reprieve in the form of Donald Trump – the most unlikely champion of conservatism we could have imagined. But he has done a remarkable job – despite relentless, unprecedented opposition by the media and the deep state: a job all the more impressive in that he apparently has not yet wrested effective control of large portions of the government, including the Defense and State departments, from the globalists.

As tough a road as it has been for President Trump, it is about to get much worse with the Democrats resuming control of the House of Representatives and the Mueller legal witch hunt continuing unabated. No one on this planet could survive these attacks unscathed, let alone a billionaire former New York liberal who played by worldly rules for decades. There is likely dirt to find and they will likely find and exploit it.

So the first question is whether or not Donald Trump will keep on punching forward and refuse to surrender as their blitzkrieg of pain and pressure escalates toward a grand crescendo in 2020. And the second, equally important question is whether Christians and other conservatives will remain loyal and actively supportive as the case against Trump’s past acts and character – by the world’s most skilled propagandists and regime change specialists – matures.

If the leftist and neo-Con forces united against Donald Trump (these principalities and powers I alternately label Marxist, Humanist and Globalist) are able to drive him from office, or worse, break him to their will for the remainder of his term (as they did in part to Ronald Reagan), our window of reprieve will close, and the globalist end-game will pick up right where it left off in November of 2016.

But because I believe he is God’s man for this job, I am reasonably confident that the bad guys will not break Donald Trump nor drive him from office, and so long as that is true, I will do everything in my power as an American citizen to defend and assist this president and reelect him in 2020.

Politics IS dirty, and that is why Christians have a duty to be salt and light in that arena: not as Pollyannas condemning or distancing ourselves from every human flaw in our leaders, but as ethically-grounded pragmatists who keep our focus on the big picture – in but not of the world.

The Current State of the Culture War — Our 2018 Year-End Report

by Dr. Scott Lively

The term “culture war” was coined by Pat Buchanan right about the time I was first drawn into it in the mid 1980s. That was at the peak of the so-called Reagan Revolution when President Ronald Reagan presided over something of a Christian revival in the United States. Reagan declared 1983 the “Year of the Bible.” At the same time and in the same assertive spirit he challenged Michael Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin wall and allow Christianity to flow back into the nations of the Soviet Union — to drive out the disease of Communism which had caused immeasurable suffering for the people of Russia and the other countries under Soviet control.

When the Berlin wall fell, and Glasnost followed, most Americans thought Communism had been defeated in the world, and went back to sleep. It wasn’t entirely their fault, however, since the public’s perspective of reality was in those days largely controlled by the Marxist ideologues of America’s corporate media giants. These gatekeepers carefully concealed their common Marxist parentage with the Communists while continuing to indoctrinate the public in Marxist presuppositions framed as “secularism.”

I was as ignorant of the truth in those days as anyone else and fought abortion and the LGBT agenda as if they were stand-alone social issues related only to naturally evolving sexual mores. After thirty years of battle across five continents I now know that the culture war has always been a war of global conquest by Marxists. It is and has always been a religious war of Humanists against Bible-believing Christians and Torah-faithful Jews in the West and Muslims, Hindus and Buddhists in the East.

The True Adversary is Humanism

Humanism is, after Communism, Socialism and Fascism, the fourth form of Marxism, often called “Cultural Marxism” because of its emphasis on social and cultural tactics of subversion, rather than economic ones. It is the religious form of Marxism and “political correctness” is its moral code. While sometimes labeled “Secular” Humanism (to falsely frame it as non-religious), Humanism most certainly is a religion, and was acknowledged as such by the US Supreme Court in Footnote 11 of Justice Hugo Black’s majority opinion in Torcaso v Watkins (1961).

Importantly, Hugo Black was FDR’s Marxist agent on the court who shifted the US Constitution from a Biblical to a Humanist foundation in Everson v Board of Education(1947) and then leveraged the Everson ruling to, in effect, declare Atheism a religion vested under the 14th Amendment with “equal protection of the law” in Torcaso. That empowered the Humanists to use “equal protection” civil lawsuits to purge Christianity from public life, which began in earnest in 1963 with the banning of government-sponsored prayer in public schools. Black’s corrupt intervention in Lyndon Johnson’s (blatant) voter fraud scandal in the 1948 Texas Democrat primary allowed LBJ to win election to the US Senate where he pushed through the “Johnson Amendment” to the IRS code in 1954, prohibiting direct church involvement in politics. FDR, Black and LBJ were de-facto Humanists who abused their vast power to systematically dismantle the Judeo-Christian foundations and infrastructure of the nation.

Humanism, utilizing Darwinian evolution in the place of Creationism as a foundational theory of origins, offers a comprehensive alternative to the Biblical worldview, including a prophetic vision of collective human self-perfection as a substitute for Heaven.  It’s doctrines are taught as dogma in its temples – our “public education” system – where dissent from its essential narratives is punished as blasphemy under Humanist “speech codes.” Indeed, public education was the first target of Humanist subversion beginning in the late 1800s through the work of “Progressive” John Dewey, who would later be a co-signer of the Humanist Manifesto in 1933. “Progressive” is synonymous with “Marxist.”

Humanist moral precepts – the “thou shalt not”s of Humanism we collectively label “political correctness” — are today rigidly enforced in every sphere of “secular” society.

Today, Humanism is the common religion of the global elites, and of the vast majority of gatekeepers who wield power not just in the news media but in all the controlling institutions of the western world. While these gatekeepers may hold nominal membership in churches, synagogues or mosques, their de-facto world-view is Humanistic.

Why the Political Left Acts in Unison

“Mainstream” journalists, academics, pundits and politicians don’t need a daily confab to decide how to react to current events and the social or public policy initiatives of Theists. Just as every Biblically grounded and literate Christian knows, for example, to oppose the normalization of sex outside of true marriage, every Humanist knows to support it, because they are guided by the clear tenets of their religion which are continually perpetuated in the form of simplistic false narratives as sacred to them as the Bible is to Christians (e.g. “Opposition to ‘marriage equality’ is motivated by hate and fear”).

Theologically speaking, Humanism perfectly fits the description of the religion of the end-times Antichrist who “sets himself above God and everything worshiped as God” (2 Thessalonians 2:4a). This result is precisely what every “secular” government achieves by declaring itself responsible to “separate” church from state and to maintain neutrality toward the competing claims of the religions operating “under its authority.” But Humanism is in fact the ultimate state religion, and is truly Satanic in the sense that it relies on deception to impose its inverted morals and doctrines on a deluded public which embraces them unquestioningly as a “non-religious” alternative to “sectarianism.”

Humanist elites pursue global supremacy using the “divide and conquer” strategy of polarization. Two blatant examples in the United States are left/right political polarization and Christian/Muslim religious polarization. The elite strategists inflame legitimate differences to breed hatred and distrust among these populations that might otherwise cooperate against them, and to create crises which they can “resolve” by implementation of Humanist policies.

Examples of Humanist Polarization

For example, the movement that coalesced on the right and left as the “Tea Party” and “Occupy Wall Street” respectively arose simultaneously in the United States in reaction to the 2008 collapse of the mortgage industry and subsequent bail-out of the elites’ corrupt banking interests which had caused it. The movement was a spontaneous revolt of populists across the entire political spectrum – in which grassroots activists of both the right and the left correctly pointed the finger of blame at predatory corporatists and the establishment core of both major parties (the purple Uni-Party). Yet somehow the Tea Party and Occupy never pursued detente in the interest of deposing the elites, nor did the possibility of such cooperation ever become a topic of national public discussion. I believe the two groups were kept unnaturally polarized by the elites until each could be successfully co-opted and absorbed: the Tea Party by the GOP and Occupy by the Dems.

Similarly, Christian/Muslim relations in America seem to me to be polarized to an unnatural degree, especially considering how closely Christians and Muslims align on the very social issues that polarize the political left and right: sexual morality, parental rights, abortion, etc. It seems even more unnatural to see most Christians shunning most Muslims when we consider how central the idea of lifestyle evangelism is in modern Christendom, and how eager the church usually is to open new mission fields. I don’t think this is accidental.

The Humanists’ divide-and-conquer “ace in the hole” is that serious differences really do exist between conservatives and progressives and between Christians and Muslims. Humanists don’t need to invent the conflicts, just exploit them. And – after generations of refining their tactics in “regime change” campaigns and other deep-state puppet-mastery around the world – these elites are so deft at their statecraft that they leave only the faintest of fingerprints behind.

One fingerprint the elites cannot hide is the phenomenon of “jingoism” on both sides of a polarized conflict. Jingoism is best described as irrational hyper-partisanship. It only exists where emotion supplants reason in analysis of the facts of any dispute, and it only becomes habitual and pervasive (as now) when it is systematically cultivated through manipulation and propaganda.

A common example of jingoism is the use of double standards by partisans in political campaigns. When we absolve our own candidate or party for doing what we condemn the other for doing, we are guilty of jingoism. This is an especially grievous sin for Christians because it is both dishonest and unjust.

The opposite of jingoism is scrupulous objectivity – such as openly acknowledging the good points of one’s opponent, even during the heat of conflict (an extreme rarity). A truly Christian culture lauds scrupulous objectivity as a virtue and discourages jingoism, but our present Humanist society does just the opposite.

Are you the victim of polarization, reader?

You may well be if your internal response to reading the prior paragraphs was to marshal arguments as to why hostility toward Progressives or Muslims is justified or to interpret my arguments as a call to compromise our principles rather than simply a desire to identify points of common interest.

Awareness of differences with other groups and of problems with their beliefs and practices is essential! But knee-jerk partisanship or hard-heartedness toward the lost is not natural nor healthy for men and women who claim a Biblical worldview. This is not to condemn anyone. We all have been subtly conditioned to polarization by the elites, not just in America, but around the world. However, in that knowledge is the power to regain our own ethical equilibrium and to collectively implement effective counter-measures.

Neutralizing Polarization Tactics

This world is presently embroiled in global chaos through the deliberate machinations of a Humanist elite.

• They have used the sexual revolution and the LGBT agenda to attack the family foundations of our societies.

• They have used mass migration and the open borders agenda to attack national sovereignty.

• They foster and weaponize Islamic radicalism to challenge and collapse the Judeo-Christian infrastructure of the west.

• They polarize American and European societies to distract and neutralize the populists and the church, and to prevent cooperation by Theists against their Atheist agenda.

• They issue incessant anti-Russian propaganda through the US, UK and EU corporate media to prevent an Anglo/Russo conservative alliance against globalism (their greatest fear).

• They wage relentless all-out warfare against every populist/conservative bulwark: President Trump in the US, Brexit defenders in the UK, Netanyahu in Israel.

In every battle the Humanists are an unseen hand steering the conflict while increasing their own power and tightening their control over the machinery of change.

As we watch the invasion of the United States and Europe by massive waves of “immigrants,” the continuous slaughter unborn babies, and an entire generation of born children being enticed into the web of LGBT deviance, we must take our eyes off the enemy’s army of “useful idiot” foot-soldiers and recognize who the generals and command staff directing these battles really are. Bill and Hillary Clinton, Angela Merkle, Emmanuel Macron, Barack Obama, The Bush Dynasty, James Comey, Robert Mueller, George Soros, The Deep State, the Mainstream Media, the GOP and DEM establishment, the massive “philanthropic” foundations, the Hollywood Moguls, the Academic elites, the Corporate elites are – almost universally — true-believer HUMANISTS engaged in religious war against Theists generally and Yahweh-worshiping Christians and Jews especially.

The Solution: A New Paradigm

The antidote to forced polarization of any population is voluntary unity on essential points of common interest by individuals and groups who respectfully agree to disagree on points of difference to preserve civility.

I propose that the answer to our polarization by Humanists is the Natural Life Movement, which shifts our political and cultural perspective from left vs right and religion vs religion to natural vs artificial. (See the attached Declaration of the Natural Life Movement).

The Marxists’ Humanist religion is a collection of artificial systems designed to supplant God’s natural order. That natural order is the obvious common ground of Theists and the ways we can cooperate to preserve it are also obvious.

The natural order is also, less obviously, the common ground of conservatives and progressives – especially in the context of environmentalism. Environmentalist concepts familiar to progressives such as “bio-diversity,” “eco-systems” and “the interdependence of species” rest on natural law presuppositions as does the preference for natural foods and medicines. It is a small step from that awareness to the broader natural vs artificial paradigm as a basis for cooperation against Humanism.

We Can and Must Organize Preemptively

In Humanist theology, Trans-Humanism is the next step of human evolution and all the societies under its sway are on the cusp of revolutionary transformation due to advancements in technology, and the successful political suppression of Christian resistance. The age of Trans-humanism is dawning, in which humanist scientists from the fields of genetics, robotics and artificial intelligence, playing God, work to “create” a new generation of supermen by blending elements of humans, animals and machines.

A global movement to recognize and preserve the universal principles of the natural order can unify the polarized populations of the world and we should create it now. Every development in the Trans-Humanist revolution will swell our numbers as awareness of the new reality grows.

We begin simply by adopting and teaching the principles, and using them a place for common ground with everyone who agrees.

“Separation of Church and State” Does Not Equal Opposition or Exclusion

The Founders Intention was “Coadjuvancy” (i.e. Cooperation).

As a constitutional law attorney with a doctorate in theology and thirty years experience as a Christian social reformer, I have a special interest and expertise in the so-called “separation of church and state” that I would like to share.

Coadjuvancy is a little-used but precise legal term meaning the cooperation or mutual effort of independent entities with authority to govern, such as the separate but equal sovereign powers of church and state.  America’s founders considered church and state to be coadjuvants with the duty to closely collaborate for the benefit of society.  The long and beneficial history of church/state coadjuvancy was carefully summarized in the United States Supreme Court case Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States, 143 U.S. 457 (1892), which is a must-read for anyone desiring to understand the topic.

The modern notion that the separation of these powers implies opposition or incompatibility is a gross misrepresentation of the founders beliefs and intentions, imposed on the nation by a cabal of hyper-partisan Democrat secularists led by Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black (a virulent anti-Catholic and one-time member of the Ku Klux Klan), along with his co-conspirator Lyndon Baines Johnson, author of the “Johnson Amendment” that purported to ban church involvement in politics.

Black wrote the majority opinion in the 1947 US Supreme Court case Everson v Board of Education which redefined the separation of church and state as a barrier to church/state cooperation – reversing over 150 years of legal precedent in which it had been recognized as a facilitator of church influence in government. It was this early and egregious example of judicial activism in Everson that shifted America from following the Judeo-Christian presuppositions of the founders to the Secular Humanist presuppositions of Cultural Marxism: preventing government from recognizing the authority of God in our law and history.

This unconstitutional, judge-created and enforced anti-religious form of secularism remains the law of the land, notwithstanding later political counter-measures such as redesigning our paper currency to include our national motto “In God We Trust.” That occurred under Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower (1953-61), who said  “Without God, there could be no American form of Government, nor an American way of life. Recognition of the Supreme Being is the first–the most basic–expression of Americanism. Thus the Founding Fathers saw it, and thus, with God’s help, it will continue to be.”

This was always a Democrat vs Republican partisan battle.  To quote from one of my previous articles “All of the nine justices in the Everson decision were nominated by Democrat presidents (four by Roosevelt, three by Truman and one by Wilson), and all were Democrats themselves except Independent Felix Frankfurter (a founder of the ACLU), and the lone Republican, Harold Burton, a personal friend of Harry Truman from their days together in the U.S. Senate. Shamefully, all agreed with Black’s revisionist definition of the “Separation of Church and State.”

In 1948, Democrat US Senate candidate Lyndon Baines Johnson’s ostensible victory over former Texas Governor Coke Stevenson, was clouded by serious allegations of voter fraud. Justice Black (himself a former Democrat Senator from Alabama), intervened on Johnson’s behalf, issuing an order barring a federal district court in Texas from further investigation of that fraud, sealing LBJ’s victory.  In 1954, Senator Johnson furthered their mutual ideological interests by sponsoring the “Johnson Amendment” to the US Tax Code, whose existence has been used for decades to unconstitutionally suppress political advocacy by churches.

(Importantly, the IRS refuses to enforce the amendment, knowing it would not survive a court challenge.  This has triggered a movement wherein a large and growing number of churches, including my own, deliberately endorse candidates from the pulpit and send the video-footage to the IRS, hoping to provoke litigation. President Trump has challenged the Johnson Amendment with an executive order and vowed to push a formal repeal of the amendment through Congress.)

In 1961, Black struck a second grievous blow to the nation in Torcaso v Watkins when he led the court to define Atheism as a religion toward which government must remain neutral.  This effectively transformed our constitution’s “equal protection” guarantees into a weapon empowering Atheists to purge Judeo-Christian influence from public life as a supposed violation of their rights.  That effort began in earnest with the removal of prayer in public schools in 1963 and gradually matured into a culture-wide climate of overt hostility toward the biblical world-view and widespread active repression of Judeo-Christian beliefs and speech in all spheres of society.

BLACK ROBED REGIMENT ARISE!

by Dr. Scott Lively

In the Revolutionary War, pastors who joined the Continental Army were called the Black Robed Regiment, and there were many because they understood the need for Godly Leadership to defeat tyranny. Without them we would not have become the first and greatest Constitutional Republic in the history of the world: a nation founded upon the Bible and a Covenental Oath called the Declaration of Independence.

Today, America faces a comparable test. President Trump’s miraculous victory in 2016 saved us from subjection to the Clinton Crime Family and provided a window of reprieve in which to take back our country from the predatory leftist elites of the deep state, an adversary far more insidious than King George.

Under the banner of “Resistance,” all the powers and principalities of the hard left, deploying all their fascist tactics, are waging a massive political offensive and massing for the Great Election War of 2018. Their goal is to crush our rebellion, oust our president, and finish their task of subsuming Christian America under global socialist control.

Today we face a critical test of Christian courage and resolve. The Black Robed Regiment MUST rise again and provide Godly leadership on America’s political battlefield.

As a proud member of that regiment, I issue a challenge to every Bible-believing pastor: ARISE BROTHERS! Enter the fray at this critical juncture! Run for political office wherever you are, but especially in places where the Godless Left has the tightest stranglehold. Run to win! But even where that end is unlikely, run sacrificially, willing to govern if God grants the victory, but forcing the adversary to expend resources defending ground they thought was secure. Shun political “norms” and expectations, using your platform to boldly shine the light of the Gospel and Biblical truth into the darkness of the political realm. Bravely defy media mockery and intimidation to give hope and encouragement to every believer, seeker and conservative ally under the yoke of liberal oppression.

In this I am leading by example, running aggressively as a pro-life, pro-constitution conservative against the most popular governor in America (a pro-abortion, anti-family, pork-shoveling Republican) – in ultra-liberal Massachusetts.

In God’s eyes we win just by standing up to speak plain truth without apology or equivocation. So, for the Love of God, our Families, and our Fellow Americans, BLACK ROBED REGIMENT: ARISE!
Dr. Scott Lively is a pastor and constitutional law attorney running as a Republican for Governor of Massachusetts who may be reached by email at sdllaw@gmail.com. He will formally issue this challenge on behalf of the national Christian activist group Reclaiming America for Christ on February 6th, 6:30PM at Fairview Baptist Church Fellowship Hall, 1230 N Sooner Rd, Edmond, Oklahoma. He will be joined by Pastor Dan Fisher, Candidate for Governor of Oklahoma and author of Bringing Back the Black Robed Regiment (2013).

A Christmas Challenge by Pastor Scott Lively

Of all the ethnic groups in this world, I love Jews the most, because my Lord and Savior, Yeshua Hamashiach (Jesus Christ) was one, and because some of my greatest friends and benefactors throughout my life have been Torah-faithful Jewish people whose sincere care for others reflects the love of God. Among these I count a Jewish Cadillac Dealer who picked me up hitchhiking near Boston as a young teenager and took me into his home where his family cared for me like a son during a period of crisis in my life, and later a special-ed teacher who went out of his way to get me placed in a far-left “hippie” alternative school after I had dropped out of high school in a spiral of self-destruction – an intervention that (strangely enough considering my conservatism today) helped turn my life around. There have been many others.

Yet, at the same time, some of those who call themselves Jews have been among the most cruel and destructive to me personally – and to all of humanity – by aggressively undermining the law of God upon which the infrastructure of Judeo-Christian civilization rests. Among these are unscrupulous men of the Southern Poverty Law Center, and the billionaire Paul Singer, patron of the so-called Human Rights Campaign, who all have singled me out for vilification and harassment for publicly scrutinizing the LGBT movement and its history through the lens of the Hebrew Torah they themselves reject. And who could forget the curse inflicted on the world by Torah-faithless Jews like George Soros, and various Jewish Hollywood and news media moguls in the mold of Harvey Weinstein, who use their influence (and push fake news) to degrade rather than uplift society.

I am reminded of the profundity of Jeremiah, Chapter 24, in which God Himself compares the Jews of pre-captivity Jerusalem to figs: the good ones being like the choicest first fruit of the season, while the bad ones were too rotten to eat. As His chosen people, Hebrews have always been intended to represent the best and worst of mankind – measured by their faithfulness to His law — demonstrating in their own lives the consequences of their obedience or rebellion, with significant implications for the entire world.

Indeed, it was the Jewish intellectual become Christian apostle Paul who observed in his letter to the Romans “A person is not a Jew who is one only outwardly, nor is circumcision merely outward and physical. No, a man is a Jew because he is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code” (Romans 2:28-29) citing the “circumcision of the heart” promised by God to faithful Hebrews in Deuteronomy 30:6.

It is this spiritual truth that explains the meaning of the word “Semite” (Shemite) by which Jewish identity is linked to Noah’s son Shem, held by Hebrew sages to be none other than Melchizedek, the Priest of the Most High God, to whom Abraham paid homage in Genesis 14. Thus it is that “Semite” does not define an ethnicity – for the physical descendants of Shem are vast in number (especially compared to the Jews) and include untold numbers of Jew-hating Islamists. “Semite” is instead a religious designation meaning “Worshiper of Yahweh,” for that is what has always distinguished true Jews from fake ones, and what has always allowed non-Hebrews to become true Jews per Deuteronomy 23:7-8 and other passages. And, importantly, faithfulness to Yahweh is judged most pivotally over the issue of male homosexuality, for it is no accident that Melchizedek’s rival for the fealty of Abraham in the pivotal story of Genesis 14 is King Bera of Sodom, whose name means King of Evil, while Melchizedek means King of Righteousness.

That same homosexual issue serves as a key litmus test for Jews today. As wise Solomon observed, “What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun” (Ecclesiastes 1:9).

In a recent conversation with an Orthodox Rabbi with whom I’ve been friends for years, I opined that the rise of anti-Semitism around the world is rooted in large part in the perception that Jews are behind the rising tide of moral depravity afflicting the entire planet today. This opinion (re the anti-Semites) is informed by my personal observations in a study of the populist/nationalist movement through travel in 27 countries in the past two years. One can almost correlate the degree of suspicion of Jews in these nations to the degree to which George Soros and his cronies have been active in their societies, especially in Eastern Europe and the Russian Federation. It also does not escape the attention of the world – including billions of morally conservative Moslems, Buddhists, Hindus and Christians — that Torah-faithless Jewish leaders are among the most vocal champions of the American-style sexual perversion that has overflowed into their nations with such terrible consequences.

Because I work closely with many Torah-faithful Jews I know those perceptions are false: for every morally regressive left-wing Jew like Al Franken, there are many Torah-faithful Jews just as aghast as the rest of us over their immoral agenda. But there are bitter memories and fears among true Jews about the consequences of taking a strong, public moral stand. According the German Jew Samuel Igra, author of Germany’s National Vice (1945), it was the righteous Jewish newspaper publisher Maximilian Harden who exposed a homosexual cabal in control of Kaiser Wilhelm’s pre-WWI German government, leading to a series of major public trials from 1907-1914. Those trials angered the growing German “gay” subculture, including the young Adolf Hitler (who was, according to Igra, a male teen prostitute in Munich and Vienna in those years), turning him violently against the Jews because they were responsible for the “homophobic” moral crackdown. When Hitler’s Nazi Party later started scapegoating Jews, the majority Christians did not come to their defense (with some exceptions) and the result was the Holocaust.

During my recent visit to Israel, leading a tour group of Christians, I stayed at a guest house in Old Jerusalem on the grounds of the oldest Protestant church in the Middle East, ground-zero in the Anglican Christian effort to repatriate Jews to the Holy Land many years before the political movement called “Zionism” would be founded. My email and Facebook comments at that time triggered a backlash from anti-Zionists, whom I vigorously debated by email for many subsequent weeks and lost at least one friend in the process.

This led me to a great deal of self-study and contemplation about the issues touched upon in this article, and numerous failed attempts to put these thoughts in a form that balances two perspectives that divide lots of Christians into two opposing camps: those who love Israel and the Jews so much they won’t admit some men and some Israeli policies are just plain bad, and those who hate Israel and the bad Jews so much they won’t admit that many Jews are righteous, some of them exemplary. For my part, I will continue to seek and speak the truth in a balanced and objective manner.

The New Testament contains a famous proverb about the wheat and the tares, a metaphor for true and false Christians. That metaphor reflects the same spiritual principle as Jeremiah 24: Christians are wheat, Jews are figs, but the lesson is the same. And just as Christians have the duty to make the distinction between good and bad examples of their faith clear to the world, so do the Jews. We can and should all fight anti-Semitism by exposing the fake Jews pushing an anti-Torah agenda, but true Jews need to take the lead.

I challenge us all to recognize that Bible-faithful Christians and Torah-faithful Jews should be better friends to each other than we are to the faithless members of our own group, and to work together to restore to our society the truths we hold in common.

I’m going to keep this short and to the point. Pundits and political scientists will be dissecting the Jones/Moore election for years to come but there are three critical lessons for conservatives that we must recognize now.

First, that the takedown of Judge Moore was decidedly not about vindicating newly-minted and highly suspect accusations of decades-old alleged sexual misconduct, it was about keeping a genuinely independent Bible-believing Christian conservative from joining President Donald Trump in the essential mission of draining the swamp in Washington D.C.. Judge Roy Moore would have been to the US Senate and to President Trump what Judge Robert Bork would have been to the US Supreme Court and to President Ronald Reagan – a clear and present danger to every political skunk, rat and RINO in D.C.. The real target of this is Trump, just as the “borking” of Judge Bork was about targeting Reagan.

Second, Alabama’s political chaos – and the national tsunami of sex scandals the preceded it – was not the result of some spontaneous social revolt against male predation, but a calculated and diabolical political strategy of the Purple Revolution.

The Purple Revolution is America’s version of the George Soros “color revolutions” that have perfected the art of social crisis as a political weapon-of-mass-destruction for the purpose of “regime change” at the national level. These orchestrated sex scandals (with no end in sight) are intended to energize the feminist base of the Democrat Party and draw large numbers of Republican women into their orbit for a 2018 thru 2020 campaign demanding female leadership to save the nation from male debauchery. I’ve written about that here: http://www.scottlively.net/2017/11/26/toxic-feminism-part-two-the-re-branding-of-the-democratic-party/

There are two reasons America’s revolution color is purple. Reason one, it represents the unity of the elites across party lines. The blending of blue establishment Democrats (headed by the Clinton Dynasty and Obama) and red establishment Republicans (headed by the Bush Dynasty) results in a purple “Uniparty.” That unity was on full display in the “borking” of Judge Moore. This is their revolution.

And, just as the blue part of the team was willing to throw a few Hollywood perverts and Al Franken under the bus to set up a takedown of Moore – like tipping over a domino aimed at Donald Trump – so is the red part of the team apparently willing to sacrifice it’s senate majority for the sake of saving the purple Uniparty from death by swamp-draining.

Reason two is that purple is the color of the LGBT movement, allegiance to which is a high priority for the Uniparty and their one-world-government co-conspirators around the globe. The sexual revolution is absolutely key to collapsing the family-based societal infrastructure that motivates and empowers nations to resist assimilation into open-border global socialism. And the “gays” are the key activists and agitators who drive the sexual revolution everywhere. As an unshakable champion of Biblical marriage and opposition to the LGBT agenda, Judge Moore represented perhaps the biggest threat to the Uniparty that the US Senate had ever faced, which explains in part why they expended such vast resources to take him out, but also explains why their method involved allegations of grave sexual sin. They couldn’t just beat him, they had to destroy him politically.

Third and last, the battle to save America from the Uniparty will be decided in 2018. Of course, every election these days is cast in apocalyptic terms, so people get a bit jaded in hearing this sort of rhetoric. But these actually are apocalyptic times! Can you imagine the condition America would be in today if the Clinton Crime Family had not been defeated by Donald Trump in 2016? Just think about all the hatred, slander and dirty tricks being directed at President Trump since the election instead being directed from a war room in the Clinton White House against all American conservatives; mowing down all resistance to the globalist agenda like a Nazi machine gun at a prisoner-of-war camp.

That’s what’s a stake in 2018! If we conservatives lose either house in the 2018 election, the swamp-draining pumps will grind instantly to a halt and the next two years will offer nothing but scorched-earth political warfare to destroy Donald Trump. The global populist revolution will have been broken and America will be assimilated into the New World Order.

That’s the real lesson of the “borking” of Judge Moore. This is a fight to the political death of America or the Uniparty and we’d better act accordingly.

Hollywood Chickenhawk Child Recruitment Strategy Unmasked

(This article in PDF: Chickenhawk Child Recruitment Strategy Unmasked)

This is the third in a series of articles on the unfolding pederasty scandal in Hollywood. The first explained how pederasty (man/boy sex) is central to “gay” male culture. The second examined how a conspiracy of political leftists in media, academia and government allowed the truth to remain suppressed for so long. This article will expose how these same conspirators are even now orchestrating a new cover-up. It will also explain how “gay” recruitment of children through “grooming”” is not only common in the “gay” community, but has been institutionalized in western society so that literally every child is continually being “groomed” as a potential sex partner for adult predators.

Let’s begin by addressing the damage control strategy being deployed by the left as they seek to reestablish the cover-up of the Hollywood pederast network. It has just two parts and is very simple.

First (as always with the left), it centers on a common narrative designed to control public perception through carefully chosen terminology and symbolism. In this case, the key term to note is “pedophilia,” because it is well settled in public perception that pedophilia is a sickness unrelated to homosexuality in which the gender of child victims is largely incidental. In contrast, the phenomenon being exposed in the Hollywood Chickehhawk scandal is actually pederasty, which is highly gender specific and has always been intimately associated with “gay”” male culture. (This should be Talking Point #1 for every conservative pundit!)

The larger narrative is “there’s always a few rotten apples in every barrel and it’s good these few have been exposed but they certainly aren’t representative of any larger hidden network or connected in any way to the LGBT community (which is in fact as much a victim of these perverts as those who were abused).”

Second, because of his celebrity and the timing of his exposure, Kevin Spacey will most likely remain the symbolic scapegoat of the entire Chickenhawk scandal. This again is classic leftist diversion (like the Clintons’ Lewinsky scandal deflected attention from their far more consequential criminality and treason that continued unchallenged and unabated). By keeping the main spotlight on the chosen focal point, and signaling to the entire leftist block that Spacey is the chosen symbol on which to pour all their scorn and derision, the left can both steer public attention regarding the scandal generally, while “proving” how much they despise “pedophilia” by the excessiveness of their hyperbole. They can also provide limited cover for other perpetrators by keeping the audience fixed on the “center ring” of the media circus.

In time, when the public bloodlust has been sated, the cover will be closed and the Chickenhawks network will be back in business, with new precautions in place to prevent a reoccurrence.

However, time favors the Chickenhawks because of the institutional “grooming” taking place in our society. To get a mental glimpse into this phenomenon, consider for just one moment how many of Kevin Spacey’s “victims” don’t actually think of themselves as victims. Spacey is 56 years old and apparently has been very sexually active for his entire adult life – there must be hundreds, perhaps thousands of underage boys on his list of successful conquests. Who are these boys and why were they willing to be seduced? They are simply products of America’s public schools and popular culture who have been groomed since infancy to view homosexuality as good and normal, and challenged to experiment with it themselves.

And who has been most aggressive in pushing this perspective of “sexual freedom” in movies, music, literature, sports, schools, and every other sphere of influence over children? Who exactly are the “style-setters,” the ““envelope-pushers,” the “taboo-challengers” that continuously feed and encourage the rebellious inclinations of children and teens? Who most “benefits” from and has driven the so-called sexual revolution from the very start? It is the same conspiracy of Hollywood elites, Democrat strategists and LGBT activists that have provided cover for the Chickenhawks for decades.

To understand just how serious a threat this is to ALL our children it helps to step outside the ““sexual orientation” theory of homosexuality that was invented by these same people to sell the narrative that homosexuality is innate and unchangeable. For just one moment consider whether instead, all human beings are susceptible to adopting any form of sexual identity simply because it’s all just behavioral choices – and that these choices, when made in youth, can get locked in place. Once you realize that, the “sexual freedom” agenda, and normalization of homosexuality as a lifestyle choice, is readily recognized as a giant “grooming” strategy to prepare all children for recruitment. Let us all pray that the Hollywood Chickenhawk scandal gets fully exposed.

The following is quoted from the article “Nothing to Celebrate in LGBT History” on this blog:

* According to the pre-eminent scholarly journal of the LGBT community, the Journal of Homosexuality, and one of its most respect contributors, Gert Heckma PhD, of the Gay Studies Department of the University of Amsterdam, the Marquis de Sade was a key pioneer of the modern LGBT movement. In his 1989 article, titled “Sodomites, Platonic Lovers, Contrary Lovers: The Backgrounds of the Modern Homosexual” (Vol. 16, No 1. 1989) Heckma writes:

“The most important exception to the philosophes’ ambivalent politics of the body was D.A.F. Marquis de Sade, who based his political philosophy precisely on sodomy…Sade used sodomy as a particularly good example of what seemed to be unnatural, unreasonable and purposeless, but which could in no way be proven to be against nature or reason. Sade’s Philosophy in the Boudoir (1795) was a clear apology for the decriminalization of pederasty [man/boy sex] and sodomy…Sade emphasized that there were no rational arguments against any form of social behavior, be it prostitution, lust murder, or sodomy, and he strongly opposed the suggestion that theft, prostitution, sodomy or lust murder were against nature….

“In 1772, Sade was sentenced to death for sodomizing his manservant and for poisoning prostitutes…Nothing is known about his homosexual proclivities except for the sodomy of his manservant and his writings. But his most scrupulous biographer, Gilbert Lely, has asserted that he was a homosexual with no remorse….It was against…family politics…and the church and its institutions that Sade rebelled — albeit without much success — thus beginning a political struggle for the rights of pederasts.”

In my prior article I defined “toxic feminism” as poisonous hybrid of feminine guile and masculine aggression whose goal is to replace the patriarchal order of society with a matriarchy. I also suggested that toxic feminism is the ideological lubricant for the recent wave of sex scandals exposing men in power, and that this sudden explosion of scandals may be a deliberate strategy of the Clinton/Soros “Purple Revolution.”

After further deliberation, I am convinced that it is orchestrated and is in fact the opening gambit in an audacious move by the Clintons to rebrand the Democratic Party and reassert their control over it – exploiting toxic feminism as a political weapon of mass destruction. I think the strategy is to use a continuing campaign of sex scandals to polarize the nation by gender and to unite women across the political spectrum on the theme that female leadership is the only solution to the sexually predatory nature of “toxic masculinity.”

My guess is that this strategy is the brainchild of Bill Clinton, whose long public journey through the valley of shame and disgrace over the Lewinsky scandal has on the one hand proved to him the potency of such scandals as a political weapon (in that special way that suffering refines perceptions), and has on the other hand immunized him from further significant harm (like the survivor of a deadly virus). Probably better than any other American, he also knows where all the skeletons are buried on the left, and is, with Hillary, deeply embittered by the betrayal of the pro-Sanders Hollywood and New York media elites, and other rebels in the Democrat Party whom they believe cost them the presidency.

The Clintons also command a vast army of “new feminists,” primed to wage cultural guerrilla warfare in pursuit of matriarchal power: zealots whose ethics are so compromised by their embrace of child-murder and the LGBT agenda that bearing false witness in furtherance of election fraud is easily justified. Wherever the sex scandal campaign lacks truthful victims (as I believe is the case in the Judge Roy Moore election), it can be supplemented by fraud which will be all the more readily accepted in the context of so many genuine sex-scandals.

Indeed, I suspect the sequence in which the sex scandals were triggered, Weinstein and Spacey first, then Moore, was intentional: they used the two notorious Hollywood serial abusers as “chum” to create a feeding frenzy among the media sharks, then pushed Moore into the same water using fraud and misrepresentation to imply equivalency, knowing that McConnell and the GOP establishment would pile on. I wouldn’t be surprised if McConnell was actually in on it.

But this is much, much bigger than Judge Moore – it is the Clinton/Soros Purple Revolution to oust President Trump and restore the Clinton dynasty to control of the D.C. swamp. The sex scandal campaign is about the 2018 and 2020 elections and rebranding/retooling the Democrat Party for warfare in the Trump era. Judge Moore is just a dress rehearsal for the show to come.

Consider the political landscape under Trump from their perspective, which for Democrats is always about a few core constituencies. Trump’s MAGA economic strategy cost them blue-collar and union member support in the swing states during the 2016 election, and his amazing success in keeping his promises over the past year has presumably vastly strengthened his support among that demographic. Trump’s larger appeal to white men and populists, in part by highlighting the cultural consequences of liberal influences in the Black community (e.g. the tainting of the NFL by political correctness) has also borne much fruit. And his exceptionally strong support for Israel is winning over many American Jews.

So who’s left in the Democrat family to deliver victory at the polls? There’s the “gays,” of course, rich in resources but minuscule in numbers, and the Moslems and left-leaning Hispanics (though Trumps economic and family values agenda undoubtedly appeals strongly to both of those constituencies). That really leaves only women, the consistency that Hillary Clinton expected to carry her over the finish line in 2016.

The sex scandal campaign is the Clinton strategy for maximizing the women’s vote to offset Trump’s poaching from their other constituencies. But they get more out of it than that. First, they can punish their enemies, which is always high on their priority list: the media elites in Hollywood and New York will definitely suffer for their betrayal of the Clintons. Second, because they’re the Clintons, there’s always blackmail and extortion in play, and to the extent they control the orchestration of sex-scandals, the entire leftist male power bloc (libertines almost by definition) will be like puppets on their string. Third, and most significantly from a public policy standpoint, they will benefit both directly and indirectly by raising all boats on the toxic feminist tide, because, statistically speaking, the more women in political power of either party, the greater the government support for child murder and the destructive LGBT agenda.

From the Machiavellian perspective, the sex scandal campaign is truly brilliant political strategy – diabolical in fact. Its genius is that it simply unleashes an enormous untapped force of nature: womens’ pent-up frustration over their collective sexual objectification since the dawn of the sexual revolution – which is truly ironic since that same revolution established their political power as feminists. They liked the sense of personal empowerment that came with dismantling the patriarchy that once controlled and protected them (empowerment hinged largely on the legal “right” to end their unwanted pregnancies by killing their babies), but they have always chafed inwardly at the corollary effects of the concurrent porn culture that empowered all men (not just those in power) to justify self-centered sexual predation as a way of life.

Most people in our apostate society won’t recognize it, but this sex scandal phenomenon is a morality tale on the natural consequences of rejecting God’s guidance on sexuality, family and culture. There’s a good reason that both men and women were once subject to a Bible-based system in which men traded sexual freedom for control and women traded independence for security: it was the only way to channel human nature away from the destructive consequences of self-centeredness into the mutually beneficial family-centered structure that is the foundational prerequisite to healthy civilization.

The biblical model that served civilization so well for so very long is summarized in Ephesians, Chapter 5: the duty of a man is to protect and to cherish his wife above his own life. The duty of a women is to defer to first her father and then her husband, and to respect their authority as God’s provision for the security and happiness of herself and her children.

Another biblical passage perfectly captures the sex-scandal phenomenon and the Clintons’ strategy as it relates to these feminists: “But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive…swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God…For among them are those who creep into households and capture gullible women, burdened with sins and led astray by various passions, always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth” (2 Timothy 3:1-7).

It might not be possible to put this Genie back in the bottle, and maybe it’s better that we can’t, because the chickens of the sexual revolution are finally coming home to roost in a way that provides the church a powerful “teachable moment” about the stability of gender-harmonized family-based society in contrast to the chaos of selfish individualism.
