Gary Bauer: A Close-up

Bauer making the Masonic-Illuminati triangle hand-sign.

Getting Started
Religious Right Wing leader Gary Bauer recently announced his endorsement of Rick Santorum. Gary has an interesting background, which is full of ecumenical and world government associations. To the untrained eye, he merely looks like a man passionate for the conservative Christian cause. To the trained eye, he's a man on a mission to bring about a revolution.

The funny thing is that the name Bauer was once the name held by the Rothschild family. In the 1760s, Mayer Amschel Bauer changed his name to Rothschild.[1] I could find nothing about Gary Bauer's parents, which is typically carried in most biographical sketches. The loss of information leads you to wonder if there is any connection to the Illuminati Rothschild family.

In this recently released video, Bauer talks about Ron Paul and his personal views on conspiracy theories. Although I do believe Ron Paul has an agenda of his own, and may be in the candidates mix to create a dialectic, it depicts Bauer as a man not willing to speak the truth.

A Closer Look
According to Barbara Aho:
  • Council for National Policy Executive Committee (1996) 
  • Founded the Family Research Council, in 1983, then merged with Focus on the Family from 1988-1992. The FRC then reorganized as a separate 501C-3 and incorporated as such in the District of Columbia, in October 1992. 
  • Bauer was featured as a speaker at the Sun Myung Moon's  Women's Federation For World Peace Conference in Washington DC in 1996, and had a full page ad in the Moon-owned Washington Times in August, 1997.  
  • In 1997, a new headquarters for Family Research Center, and was built and decorated with funds through resources provided by FRC benefactors, the families of Ed and Elsa Prince and 33º Mason Richard DeVos of Amway. [FRC "Washington Watch" 1/3/97] 
  • Bauer ran as a candidate for the Republican nomination for President of the U.S. In February of 2000, Bauer withdrew and endorsed pro-abortion candidate, John McCain.

According to Wikipedia:
In the following video, Chris Hedges talks about his book "American Fascists: The Christian Right and the War on America." He examines how Christian Dominionists are seeking absolute power and a Christian state. He explains in an articulate manner how the Right Wing bears a strong resemblance to the young fascist movements in Italy and Germany in the 1920s and '30s. Please note that not all of his opinions are biblical, but I suppose we shouldn't expect them to be considering where he went to seminary. Gary Bauer is not mentioned in this piece, but he is included in this group of radicals.

    Christian Reconstructionism and the History of the Homeschool Movement


    The Kindred Spirits Sisters blog is presently doing a study on how the early Quiver Full and Patriarchy movements, and its ties to Christian Reconstructionism/Dominionism. This subject actually has several facets to it. Just as when you peel away layers of an onion to find a new layer, you will see that Reconstructionism/Dominionism also has several layers - many of which are still hidden. It is very easily traceable to find how Reconstructonism was instrumental in the early development of the homeschooling movement.

    Many of these Christian families in the Quiver Full and Patriarchy movements have been encouraged to withdraw their children from the world's school system in order to train them at home, only to be introduced to the Reconstructionist homeschool curriculum. With these ministry books, materials, and homeschool conventions, parents unknowingly begin filling their children with Reconstructionist and Dominionist ideas - with some lies and some truth. Since most Christians don't know there are political motivations behind the homeschool movement, they blindly accept the information given to them, and never question it. But as you will learn, the grassroots homeschool movement, politics, and Christianity have been  intricately woven together by the Religious Right, a political arm.

    Cheryl Lindsey Seelhoff, who once published the "Gentle Spirit" magazine, wrote her own analysis of the blend of religion and politics in the homeschool movement:
    "It is often believed that the homeschooling movement in the early years was composed
    mostly of conservative Christians, but I don’t believe that can be proven. I do believe
    that conservative Christian homeschoolers, because of their shared religious beliefs and because they were highly organized, committed, and often outspoken, had a powerful, visible, public presence and a zeal common to religious and political action groups and almost unheard of outside of such groups. Shared religious beliefs, in particular, are powerful motivators
    and create emotional intensity in relationships. This is something that homeschoolers outside of these circles did not have (and in most instances did not want.)
    If I apply my own twist to what Cheryl has said: Unlike any other group, Christian homeschoolers have the commitment and zeal to help get Republicans politicians into office. Since they believe they are doing God's work, they will support a Conservative politician claw his way to the top. This would explain why the Republicans have been more overall supportive of the homeschool movement.
     
    The Early Days
    Christian Reconstructionists founded the present homeschool movement. According to Jay Rogers:
     "R. J. Rushdoony, aside from being the founder of Christian Reconstruction, is also the founder of the modern home schooling movement. Most people who deride the Reconstructionist movement for being 'too political' don't realize that."[1]
    While American Christians once believed they should be biblically separate from the affairs of the world, they began to take matters into their own hands. The country was experiencing some problems, which concerned many Christians, so a select group of Fundamentalist Christians changed their viewpoint about separation. Although they continued to practice and protect aspects of biblical separation, their political viewpoints were radically changed. Christians and politics married and became one. 

    Although the foundation of the modern homeschool movement is biblical, the underlying motivations of those supporting it had a purpose in mind - which was the trend toward Fascism. This will explain the frequent use of the word "dominion." Since politics and religion joined together in an unholy alliance, their reasoning was carefully molded by change agents to make it more palatable. Through propaganda in the media, textbooks, and learning institutions, this led many to believe that to be a Christian meant that they had to become patriotic and politically active. They were told to "convert" to the Republican party - since they represented the pro-family and values vote. That should have been a red flag, but few saw it that way.

    A Timeline of the Homeschool/Christian Political Movement
    1970s
    The modern homeschool, “deschooling” and "unschooling" movements quietly began in America, after Raymond S. (CNP) and Dorothy Moore and John Holt (CNP) published books on the benefits of home education. The concept stemmed from the belief that institutionalized schooling is used as a tool for the engineering of an ignorant, conformist working class through constant schedules and prearranged time blocks and one-size-fits-all teaching methods. 

    1979 
    Founded by (Freemason) Rev. Jerry Falwell in 1979, the Moral Majority was an influential advocate for "pro-family", "pro-life", "pro-defense" and "pro-Israel." The Moral Majority became one of the largest political lobby groups for evangelical Christians in the United States during the 1980s.[2]  

    Rev. Jerry Falwell and Rev. Sun Myung Moon, 
    both having ties to the Council for National Policy.
    1983
    It was as early as 1983 when Michael Farris and J. Mike Smith founded Home School Legal Defense Association. At that time, parents teaching their children at home was relatively obscure. used his extensive experience in both politics and appellate litigation to defend parental rights, so his organization gained popularity. 

    Many unsuspecting homeschoolers have supported this organization, knowing little about Michael Farris and his connections to the Council for National Policy - a Christian version of the Council on Foreign Relations, both of which support the goal of world government. Farris had a close connection to conservative leaders like Jerry Falwell of the Moral Majority, Pat Robertson of the Christian Coalition, and Phyllis Schlafly of the Eagle Forum. [3] He presently has ties to the Heritage Foundation, since they awarded him the Salvatori Award for American Citizenship in 2002. He may be sincere, but he has political ties that run deep.

    1985
    Mary Pride played an important pioneer role in authoring information guides for the homeschooling movement. Pride has been described as "the queen of the home school movement," and awakened many women to the destructive forces behind feminism. Her book, The Way Home, spoke to the hearts of many women. In her book, she explained the biblically mandated role of wives and mothers as bearers of children and workers in the home under the authority of her husband.

    Mary Pride was homeschooling her children when Franky Schaeffer entered her life. The son of Francis Schaeffer, a Reconstructionist, became her literary agent. From her account, she only spoke to him on the phone once.

    Schaeffer advocated Christian action and political involvement in every aspect of life, as he thought the Christian influence would remedy social ills.[3] This was never Mary Pride's goal and still isn't.

    In the "Afterthoughts" section of the 25th Anniversary Edition of The Way Home, she does NOT encourage priding ourselves on having more children than other families, or putting down those who are physically unable to have children. Her goal was to reverse the headlong trend of Christian wives from tying their tubes and dumping their babies in daycare/public school, which ALL major Christian media was promoting at the time of publication. The point of the book was to draw attention to the Bible's teaching on this subject, which emphatically does not support careerism, deliberate barrenness, family planning, or despising our calling to train up our own children. There was no political agenda!

    1989
    The Christian Coalition was created by Freemason Pat Robertson in 1989.  In a national convention for the Christian Coalition, Rev. D. James Kennedy said that "true Christian citizenship" involves an active engagement in society to "take dominion over all things as vice-regents of God."[4]

    Robertson said to the Denver Post in 1992, "We want...as soon as possible to see a majority of the Republican Party in the hands of pro-family Christians..."[5]

    Pat displays the Masonic 'Devil's Claw' Sign.

    Robertson hired Ralph Reed as the Christian Coalition's political mastermind. To get their candidates elected Reed and Robertson taught them to use stealth: avoid publicity, stay out of debates, and work below the radar screen. Don't call attention to yourself. And then the Christian Coalition campaigned on their behalf exclusively in fundamentalist, Pentecostal and Charismatic churches. [6]


    Homeschooling becomes legal in all states.

    2000
    Founded by Michael Farris, Patrick Henry College opens. It was the first college in the United States founded specifically for Christian homeschooled students. The Government department offers majors in Government, and the option to specialize in American Politics and Policy, International Politics and Policy, Political Theory, Strategic Intelligence, or an "undeclared general" government track. The Seven Mountains Mandate of Dominionism can be seen by this track. The Seven Mountains concept instructs “Bible believing” Christians to seek control of seven key sectors of society, with one of them being government.

    2004
    Dr. E. Ray Moore and Dr. Bruce N. Shortt teamed up with others in the Southern Baptist Convention to promote an "exit strategy" from the public schools."[5] The Exodus Mandate Project, is a ministry to encourage and assist Christian families to leave government schools for Christian schools or home schooling.

    When you take a closer look, he explicitly acknowledges his debt to Rushdoony and other Reconstructionists. Dr. Bruce N. Shortt, one of Moore's allies in his fight against public education, has been promoted by Rushdoony's Chalcedon Foundation and Shortt's book, The Harsh Truth About Public Schools, which was published by them.

    The CNP and Homeschooling
    In the following trailer from IndoctriNation, you see how eager these individuals, some of them CNP members, want our children to leave the schools and be brought home to be re-indoctrinated by the Reconstructionist school curriculum.


    (Indoctrination link)

    They all make legitimate points in this presentation. The public schools are corrupting our children with humanism and other philosophies of this world. The best place for them is at home, but we must be careful and filter out the political lies the curriculum is teaching them (and us). When you look at the big picture, this is a huge, all-consuming movement.

    To show you the alliances of those who were in the IndoctiNation movie, consider the following. In his recent book, Dr. E. Ray Moore (mentioned above) allows us to see further into his life.

    The Masonic artwork uses the "As above, so below."

    Conclusion
    Today the Church is in a critical time. Jesus warned us about the sin and deception that would exist in our time, which has caused blindness to wash over the majority of the Church. We were also warned about apostasy before Christ's return, as well as wolves disguising themselves as sheep that will lead many astray.

    It is my opinion that just as Hitler rose up masquerading as a Christian, a Republican will rise up in the same manner. They may be elected on a platform of God and country, but this deception has been in the making for years.

    Reconstructionism + Dominionism = Warfare Theology
    Easy war is the position of the Republican Party.

    It is tempting to get involved supporting candidates and following politics. What you choose to do with Reconstructionist curriculum and political involvement is between you and God. I have sent out a warning, so I'm just the messenger.

    CNP and Dominionists/Reconstructionists are Taking Dominion

    Since the word of warning about Dominion Theology has gotten out to many of the blogs, Os Hillman, the man behind the Reclaiming The Seven Mountain website, has recently suggested that activists should stop using the word "dominion" and instead use the word "influence" because "dominion" make the "secular media [think] that Christians want to rule the world." [1] Lance Wallnau expressed that people are taking his message and linking their own interpretation to the meaning of taking dominion over the Seven Mountains. But if you listen to the Seven Mountains presentation, is Wallnau actually saying they want to take over the world, or are we misinterpreting those statements? Let's look closer, so we know we're not really crazy.


    (YouTube link)

    On his website, Hillman posts pieces written by Johnny Enlow, author of "The Seven Mountain Prophecy" which asserts that the goal of Christians ought to be to establish a "virtual theocracy" in which government leaders will also be religious leaders, so that they can present "the nations of the world to the Lord as His possession" and bring about the return of Christ.[2]

    Can we take those words out of context?

    On Os Hillman's site, a video is posted including many of the players from the Dominion movement. Let's watch, then we will learn who they are.


    (YouTube link)

    As I stated in yesterday's post, the Council for National Policy (CNP) is an organization within the U.S. government that meets secretly, and is the conservative version of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). The Council for National Policy (CNP) is the leading force in the Christian Dominionist and Reconstructionist movements within our country, and like the CFR, it is thought of as a Right-wing cabal that is world government-minded.

    There were several members of the CNP who are seen in this Dominionist video, such as:
    • Loren Cunningham, Founder of Youth with a Mission, co-conspirator of 7 Mountains, and he has connections to Billy Graham(a Mason).
    • Bill Bright, CNP, co-conspirator of 7 Mountains
    • Francis Schaeffer, writer of A Christian Manifesto. He was credited for influencing their theological arguments urging political participation by evangelicals.[2]Francis Schaeffer was given a similar message. That message was that if we are to impact any nation for Jesus Christ, then we would have to affect the seven spheres, or mountains of society that are the pillars of any society. [3]
    • Zig Ziglar, CNP. His teachings are laced with various New Age and occultic themes. He was a regular speaker at Robert Schuller's church.[4]
    • Os Hillman, leads the NAR’s “Market Apostles” effort to take Christian dominion over society and culture. He attended Calvary Chapel Bible School, a ministry of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa.[5]
    I'd say that the Seven Mountains plan for world dominion is exactly what we believe it to be, but with one exception. It will not be the Lord Jesus Christ that the Church will be delivered to, rather into the hands of the Enemy.

    "But Jesus called them unto him, and said, 'Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles [heathen kings] exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.'"  Matthew 20:25-28

    Ryan Wyatt: Governmental Dominion

    (RWW) During a Spiritual Warfare conference at Rick Joyner’s MorningStar Ministries, Pastor Ryan Wyatt of Abiding Glory Church preached on “Governmental Dominion.” Wyatt explained that Jesus is not going to come back until God sees that there is a “mature, overcoming bride” is “operating at the same level” as Jesus, at which point Christ will return and Christians “will work with Jesus to rule and reign.” Later, Wyatt said that “we are to rule, reign, govern, expand, advance and establish the government of God on the earth” since “this is about world domination.” He called on followers to “infiltrate” the seven mountains of influence, especially the government mountain, to attain “preparatory dominion.”

    Who is Ryan Wyatt?
    Following in the footsteps of William Branham, Rick Joyner, and Bob Jones, Ryan Wyatt is connected with many leaders from the New Apostolic Reformation. Much of what they teach is fueled by the ancient heresy of Gnosticism. As you will see in this video, he has had angelic visitations by an angel with hair like white light. He also talks about how people were in trances, and how several angels were walking around the room. He also mentions gates and portals. (video starts at :34)

    Note how he isn't able to quote the scriptures behind everything he claims, if it be taking dominion of the world in preparation for the Lord's return or going into trances and entertaining spirits (2 Cor. 11:13-14).

    Calvinism: Will history repeat itself?

    Calvinism is experiencing a resurgence in the USA, especially among young people. You should know that thought [ideas] runs in cycles, and this is why history always seems to repeat itself. This applies to false doctrine, which do not die, but often go to sleep and return years later.

    In the following video, the callous reality of Calvinism is recounted. You will find that Calvinism acted rather than argued. [1]


    (YouTube link)

    Dominion theology and Reconstructionism are based on the teachings of John Calvin and Reformed Theology, not the Bible. When it comes to Evangelical Christianity, its roots are found in the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation, and its systematic exponent of Reformation theology, which was from John Calvin.

    One of Calvin's historic statements was, "Do not fail to rid the country of those zealous scoundrels who stir up people who revolt against us. Such monsters should be exterminated..."

    It is a mystery to me why well-known ministers of the Gospel would elevate Calvin. It is no different than overlooking the tyrannical rule of a Pope, then turning him into a Church saint. In my personal opinion, where there is evil in the history of the Church, it is only proof of a false religious system.

    Perhaps this video will send up some red flags. It also explains a crucial Calvin doctrine.

    Again, in my opinion, Satan uses every false doctrine for his own purpose, and each of them will come together in the Last Days. Could it be that Calvin's old teachings will take on new life and the "kill the believers/unbelievers" mentality will rise up? As the Emergent church grows and the Reformers jump ship, we'll have to watch to see what happens to the remaining radical Calvinists.

    Rick Joyner: Founding Fathers were Dominionists

     Rick Joyner in a special recognition ceremony of the Rome endorsed Knights of Malta.
    The same person who wonders why Christian folks and unbelievers are concerned  about his form of dominionism.

    (RightWingWatch) Rick Joyner of The Oak Initiative and MorningStar Ministries dedicated yesterday’s edition of Prophetic Perspectives to distancing himself from dominion theology while discussing the ties between presidential candidates like Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann to avowed dominionists. Joyner said he agreed with much of the dominionist objective of having fundamentalist Christians influence — if not control — government and society at large, but noted that he does not share dominionists’ belief that such ‘dominion’ will usher in the End Times and the Second Coming of Christ. “I just don’t believe His dominion can come to the earth until He comes,” Joyner said, “and that’s the one defining point of a dominonist to me.”

    As Sarah Leslie of the Discernment Research Group points out, Joyner once said that the “Kingdom of God” he hopes to build “may seem like totalitarianism” at first because “the kingdom will start out necessarily authoritative in many ways, or in many areas, but will move toward increasing liberty” once the culture is radically changed.

    But Joyner pointed to one group who he claims did subscribe to dominion theology: the Founding Fathers. According to Joyner, the Founders would have been known as dominionists because they wanted to “establish a government that was built on biblical principles” and “really thought they were building the Kingdom of God.” He went on to blame dominion theology for Manifest Destiny and other “really foul things” in U.S. history. Joyner mentioned that secular reporters are increasingly studying dominionism and are “terrified by it and they’re wondering if this presidential candidate is influenced by this kind of thinking,” adding, “as a Christian, I would be alarmed by some of that.”


    (YouTube link)

    My Comments

    The Reality of It All
    Our Founding Fathers were not all Christians, rather there was a strong influence of believers during that time in history. The Declaration of Independence and the American War of Independence was a mixture of Christianity and "Enlightenment" thinking of French and English philosophers of the 1700s. The Enlightenment faith, Deism, had a great influence on Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin, who also believed in humanism and rationalism. 

    Joyner wasn't telling the truth about the founders, but there is some truth in his statements about the Puritans -  who were Calvinists following a form of dominionism. The Puritans saw themselves as purifying their society and bringing it under God’s dominion. They felt that a pure society would follow the superior moral leadership of a true church with the help of a godly government. In fact, such a church and society were, in their minds, a necessary prerequisite for the Second Coming of Christ. The Calvinists would infiltrate the Congregational Churches of New England, the Presbyterians, and some Dutch Reformed churches.[2]


    The seeds that John Calvin planted never died. The same dominionist beliefs John Calvin first introduced, and have remained in our country, are unknowingly being adopted by Christians today. Dominion Theology says that belivers should dominate every sphere of society. It has also been called Christian Reconstructionism, because it advocates the total reconstruction of society according to Biblical principles, or Theonomy,  because it seeks to impose God’s law on all of society.

    Proponents of Dominion Theology or Reconstructionism believe that Christ will return to earth in His Second Coming after the Millennium. Some believe that we are currently in the Millennial age and that it is during this age that the Kingdom of God must be established on the earth.[3]

    Did Calvin's social experiment work? 
    The Protestant Reformation came along in the sixteenth century, led by Martin Luther and John Calvin - former Catholics. Luther’s views of Scripture, and of justification by faith, produced one of the greatest changes in Church history. Although Luther doesn't smell like a rose, he had a dualistic view of the Church, and therefore he was never inclined to push the Church toward the mission of transforming society.

    John Calvin, on the other hand, taught that believers are responsible for social transformation, and his followers began to believe that they have a cultural mandate (the mandate to transform society) as well as an evangelistic one (the mandate to save souls). [1] Geneva became the "Rome" of Calvinism where "reformers" would go to learn the faith and spread it all across Europe. Calvin established a reign of theocratic terror in Genva, a government controlled by religious leaders. One of Calvin's most inspired students would be the Scotsman John Knox (1514-1572).
       
    John Calvin

    The one fact that escapes our generation is that John Calvin wasn't any better than the persecution the Pope was inflicting on Protestants during the Reformation. Anabaptists were fined, driven out, whipped, or hanged at the hands of Calvin's reformers, since their beliefs didn’t agree with those of the official church.

    So, it is not an accident that Dominion Theology and Sharia Law find themselves creeping into our country at the same time the New World Order plans to make their radical transformation of our world. The unbiblical doctrines that find its root back to a dangerous man, and tries to conquer unwilling participants for the purpose of the supposed Kingdom of God. The Roman Catholics were the original dominion theologians. Is that who is standing in the background, waiting to take the reigns back?

    Boykin: The Church, the Dominating Force

    Retired Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin was interviewed last week by Paul Crouch Jr. of the Trinity Broadcasting Network’s show First To Know. Boykin told Crouch that the Church needs to become more politically active because of threats to religious freedom from groups like the American Civil Liberties Union and MoveOn. He said, "It is time for the Church, as Bible believing Christians regardless of denomination, to unify and understand that we truly serve the same God - Jesus Christ. And we need to come before Him and ask Him for forgiveness for where this nation has gone, and how we have turned our backs on God." He called on viewers to work “so that the Church emerges as the dominant influence in America,” adding, “I refuse to believe that we can’t, because God told us to occupy.”


    (YouTube link)

    There are two groups of Evangelicals who are politically active that believe Christians alone are biblically mandated to occupy all secular institutions until Christ returns - the Reconstructionists and the Dominionists. Although they took a text from the Bible to create an unbiblical political movement, it is a thread of dark Christianity that doesn't seem to be slowing down.

    Some believe that a “true” Christian cannot occupy a governmental office, or have any involvement with, or interest in, politics.  Of course, no responsible Christian can be without concern for civil government, but there was, at one time, a clear separation and non-participation from the government and its function. 

    It will be too late before many of these politically active Evangelicals realize they made a terrible mistake.

    Chris Hedges: Christian Dominionists are "American Fascists"

    In a one-year old interview for Democracy Now, Chris Hedges investigates the highly organized and well-funded "dominionist movement." He reveals their agenda, examines the movement's origins and motivations, and uncovers its ideological underpinnings. He believes the movement bears resemblance to the young fascist movements in Italy and Germany in the 1920s and 30s. (Mussolini and Hitler)

    Thankfully he differentiates the difference between traditional fundamentalists and the radical right wing. Listen to the interview as he makes some important points. 


    (YouTube link)


    (YouTube link)

    Although I do not agree with everything Chris Hedges says, he has hit the nail on the head with some of his statements, but views other information through a tainted lens. So that you don't wonder, the points I disagree with are:
    • His view that Billy Graham was separated from government.
    • I don't agree with Hedges assessment that biblical roles are a disempowerment of women - then replicated in the mega-churches. Most churches today are strongly feminist.
    • I question his idea that the radical Christian right is anti-Semitic because of their end time beliefs, since Jews will be destroyed along with all unbelievers. He feels it is short-sighted on the part of Christians, but John Hagee does have a different biblical interpretation in order to soften the differences.
    • I don't agree that evolution is true.
    The warning is out concerning Dominion Theology and it isn't hype. The warning is being heard by the unbelieving world and many are fearful of it. I believe as days go by, we will begin to see more attacks on the Church in retaliation for the radical rights desire to take dominion. To the unbeliever, all Christians look the same, so everyone will become a target.

      Pat Robertson: "What In Heaven's Name Is A Dominionist?"



      (YouTube link)

      Is it possible that Pat Robertson doesn't know the term Dominion Theology? I suspect that he knows exactly what it is.

      Is it possible that the typical church-going Christian does not know what it is, even though they teach it in their church? Absolutely! If that person has not been under sound teaching, they will come to see Dominionism as mainstream Christian doctrine. When there is a considerable amount of error being mixed in with authentic truth, it is easy to be fooled. Scripture is changed to mean something entirely different than what it was intended to mean.

      Pat is clever as a fox. If he was asked if he was a Freemason, he'd deny that too. He teaches the Dominionist doctrine and has been part of fooling unsuspecting Christians for years.

      Seven Mountains of the Christian Industrial Complex


      The Seven Mountain "mandate" of Dominionism has become a widespread teaching in the evangelical world. Many of its supporters aren't fully aware of how dark the full-blown Dominionist agenda truly is. One of the common denominators for Dominionists is the belief that the church should change the world - not just impact the world as salt and light, but actually control the world, particularly the government. This theology has deep roots in church history, and has attached itself to every aspect of modern Christianity.[1]

      Not all Christian Fundamentalist or Evangelicals are adherents of Rushdoony's Reconstructionism/Dominion Theology, however for the outsider it certainly appears that way. For those of us who can see the big picture, we understand the implications of a radical takeover. Many liberals and liberal Christians believe this type of Christianity resembles that of the Christian church that supported Hitler during World War II, and it may not be far from the truth.[2] There are also those who want to limit or end Christian Fundamentalism because of how far-reaching this movement has become, and someday they will get their wish.

      But what many of us don't realize, there is a bigger picture that must be viewed, and it can be illustrated by using the same Seven Mountain strategy of the power hungry Dominionists. Satan has used the same plan to infiltrate the Church in order to bring about world government, and seat him on the throne of the world government. I will call this the Christian Industrial Complex.

      Seven Mountains of the Christian Industrial Complex
      “In the councils of government we must guard against the acquisition of power, whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties and democratic processes.” ~Dwight D. Eisenhower, Jan. 17, 1961
      When Dwight D. Eisenhower gave this speech, he was telling the American people about the sheer significance of the relationship between our government and business. He was attempting to clue us in that there is a shadow-government who is the puppet master, pulling all the strings.

      With the Christian Industrial Complex, the relationship is even more far-reaching. Since Satan is attempting to dismantle Christianity, it touches every aspect of life. When each point is viewed, you will see that Satan has his hand print on each.

      Mountain #1 - Arts and Entertainment
      • Contemporary Christian Music

      One of the first signs of satanism is writing backwards. Also, the "M" in Michael and the "T" in Smith is part of the Runic(runic means secret) alphabet used in witchcraft! 
      • Christian Books and magazines
      The picture on Kay Arthur's book is a depiction that comes straight out of Masonic culture. Here you can see this distinctive "ladder leaning on thin air."This isn't the only book she uses with Masonic symbolism.
      • Christian radio - Radio programs that make false doctrine and false teachers seem mainline. Radio show hosts who are shills, such as Dr. Stan Monteith. 
      Mountain #2 - Business, Ministries, and Organizations
      • Christians in Secret Societies, such as Masonry, Knights of Malta, and Order of the Jesuits
      • Ministries that teach misleading historical lies, such as WallBuilders.
      • Ministries that promote radical, militaristic Christianity, such as Oak Initiative.
      • Businesses that primarily feature false teachers and Dominionist materials, such as Christian bookstores.
      Mountain #3 - Education
      • Seminary students are intentionally being taught false doctrine - such as Premillennial Dispensationalism and promotes Zionist Israel.
      • Christian school books teaching that our founding fathers were Christian.
      • Christian Patriotism is being taught in school, thus being reinforced through the church. Some churches do this unknowingly, but they are mixing church and state. Do you have a flag in your church?
      Mountain #4 - Family
      • Complimentarianism is no longer being taught as biblical within the Church. Egalitarianism has replaced biblical teaching with the world's viewpoint.
      • Money and wealth is being taught as something gained through obedience - which is false. Families are frustrated by being focused on unattainable wealth, rather than living a godly life.
      Mountain #5 - Government
      • There is no longer a separation between the Christian and political activity (government). The Republican party is a haven for faith-based voters and political activity.
      • Council for National Policy - Dominionists have overtaken this high council with their agenda.
      • "The Family" - A secretive network amongst politicians that advances the agenda of elite Christian Dominionist/Reconstructionist groups.
      • White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives - A council that blends most denominational leadership with government officials.
      • Council on Foreign Relations - Christians have been appointed to this council whose goal it is to bring about world government.
       Mountain #6 - Media
      • Christian Television - All of these stations teach Christian and American Imperialism, supports Christian Zionism, teach pre-tribulation rapture, and encourage political activity.
      • Christian Radio - (Seen above in entertainment)
      • Roman Catholic Church is presented as the face of American Christianity.
      • News media conveniently leaves out information for you to understand the full scope of the story. 
      Mountain #7 - Religion
      • New Age Emergent Churches, with Universalist leanings, are pushing mystical experience and contemplative prayer, which is also being peddled through the world by Billy Graham's Lausanne Movement.
      • WordFaith churches are promoting New Age practices of metaphysical thinking and healing. They are able to do these miracles because of the principles taught in the Kabbalah. Additionally, they teach that they are gods, but some others are more subtle.
      • New Apostolic Reformation false apostles are now mainstream.
      • Purpose Driven church and Christian Socialism are promoted by left-wing megachurch leader Rick Warren.
      • Most mainline churches belong to the National Council of Churches, which supports an ecumenical agenda, and has aligned itself with the UN Millennium Development Goals.
      • The World Council of Churches, which views false religions as a legitimate path to God, aligns itself with the National Council of Churches, which will ultimately bring the religions of the world together as one. The WCC is known for Communist activity.
      • The Jesuits, historically known as Vatican assassins, have infiltrated the institutions of higher learning with false teaching. Their goal is to bring the Protestant church under the Vatican.
      In Closing
      After World War 1, Luciferian John D. Rockefeller became involved in what was called the Interchurch World Movement. The idea was that "another crusade was needed to bring the warring factions of Christianity together." Rockefeller promoted universal ecumenism by stating in December 1917:
      "Would that I had the power to bring to your minds the vision as it unfolds before me! I see all denominational emphasis set aside...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."

      Os Hillman: Change Agent in the Church

      Historically, change agents in the Church have meant bad news to the Christian church. The change brought into the Church has typically been unbiblical and makes certain doctrine more palatable to the fence-sitters.

      Os Hillman, the author of Change Agents, describes what is contained in his book. He teaches Dominion Theology of the Seven Mountains Mandate, which is a plan to create a theocracy worldwide.


      (Vimeo link)

      He has also made a guest appearance on American Family Association radio program. This is a radio station that sounds Baptist, but has Dominionist overtones.


      (YouTube link)

      Os Hillman works with Lance Wallnau to bring about revolution in the Church. He is a major leader in the marketplace transformation movement, a key area of focus for Dominionism to be imposed upon other nations of the Earth via corporate business mechanisms. This has to do with changing governments of other nations. This isn't Dominionism Lite!

      Where did all of this Kingdom Now/Dominion Theology come from?


      Based on research by Herescope:
      "Three decades ago, two 'generals' in the Christian faith... Loren Cunningham, of Youth With A Mission, and Bill Bright, of Campus Crusade For Christ... were given a simultaneous supernatural message for each other. They both saw 7 strategic mountains, or 'mind molders', that shape the culture of every nation. God told each of them to inform the other that if they could capture these strategic places, they would reap the harvest of nations. These 7 mountains of societal influence are...

      Business
      Government
      Family
      Religion
      Media
      Education
      Arts/Entertainment"
      To understand the rationale that undergirds this marketplace dominionism "mandate," read the statement by Os Hillman in a letter to his supporters in April:

      "When Jesus died on the cross the Bible says that 'the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost' (Luke 19:10). That means we are to restore the spiritual foundations that Jesus laid all the way back to the Garden of Eden. It is through faith in Jesus and bringing His Kingdom into the seven key areas of society that we will do this.

      "When God called the people of Israel out of Egypt to form a new nation in the Promised Land, He told them that they would be the head --- not the tail --- if they obeyed the commands of the Lord. He told them to divide the land into seven parts (Joshua 18:5). They would also have to displace seven enemies that currently resided in the Promised Land."
      Herescope goes onto explain that, "This heretical teaching misapplies Jesus' salvation of lost souls with "restoring" what was "lost" at the Fall of Man. It negates the work of the Cross. It falsely empowers man to complete the work that Jesus didn't finish, which is utter blasphemy. At the foundation of this Dominionist heresy is the belief that man can return to Paradise conditions in Genesis 1 by building the Kingdom of God on Earth. Nowhere is this taught by Jesus. This is not what the Kingdom of God is all about."

      According to Hillman's bio, he was a member of Chuck Smith's church. Chuck was formerly ordained as a pastor by the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel. Aimee Semple McPherson founded the Foursquare Church in 1927, and impacted many notable pastors like Benny Hinn and Word-Faith teachers. Aimee admits to being influenced by the Latter Rain Movement, also known as the Third Wave Movement.

      The Third Wave of the Holy Spirit is a Christian theological theory first introduced by C. Peter Wagner to describe what he believed to be three historical periods of the activity of the Holy Spirit in the 20th century and beyond. Although Aimee McPherson was influenced by Catholic clergy in her church meetings and ministry, I'm not absolutely convinced this Third Wave is the same as our discussion from the other day, just similar in name.

      Fact Sheet: Gov. Rick Perry’s Extremist Allies


      (Right Wing Watch) On August 6, Texas Gov. Rick Perry will host The Response, a “prayer rally” in Houston, along with the extremist American Family Association and a cohort of Religious Right leaders with far-right political ties. While the rally’s leaders label it a "a non-denominational, apolitical Christian prayer meeting," the history of the groups behind it suggests otherwise. The Response is powered by politically active Religious Right individuals and groups who are dedicated to bringing far-right religious view, including degrading views of gays and lesbians and non-Christians, into American politics.

      The Response is modeled after The Call, highly political prayer rallies hosted by the International House of Prayer, an organization that has lent many of its staff to Perry’s event. Active in both The Call and The Response is pastor Jim Garlow, a major Religious Right leader whose extremism has flown largely under the radar of the mainstream media. The following is an introduction to the groups and individuals who Gov. Perry has allied himself with in planning this event. (Read more)

      Muslims to be Target of Intercessory Prayer on 11-11-11


      According to Lou Engle, God "is blowing the trumpet, calling a fast and gathering the people" to pray in Detroit, Michigan, where he claims there will be a great shaking and which has "a spirit of darkness." God is also raising up an army of "Black Nazarites," a new generation of Black Americans, who stand in purity, holiness, and prayer to shape the destiny of America.

      Engle says that the Muslims should be a target of intercession so that they "will know the love of Jesus," creating a great revival in Detroit.

      The Christian Dominionist preacher announced that his next "The Call" will be a 24-hour event on 11-11-11 in Detroit, that will shake the nation, as well as create a revival in Detroit and promote racial harmony.[1]

      According to an International House of Prayer site, Michigan has literally been targeted by the Muslim Brotherhood for decades. This year there are only two companies producing books for schools in Michigan, both of the are owned by Muslims.  They are in the process of re-writing the books to include Muslim history. [2]

      If Lou Engle is a Christian, why did he select the number 11-11 for his event date? The date is significant to the occult numerology, and the esoteric meaning behind the numbers trigger awakening. They are also related to the concept of synchronicity. Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events, that are unlikely to occur together by chance, that are observed to occur together in a meaningful manner. What are these two events:
      1. Raising up the Black Nazarites for a black prayer movement, and an awakening to the black community.
      2. Reaching Muslims with the love of Christ.

      Statewide Goals that will be Accomplished Through this Dominionist Event

      • Herrnhutt will become a reality and MI will be a model to the nation.
      • Day and Night 24/7/365 Prayer connecting 83 Michigan counties impacting the Seven Mountains.
      • MICHOP/Oak Initiative - The Governmental Mountain will be covered in our state and nation.
      • The Tenacious 10K will be fulfilled - 10,000 intercessors in MI – U.S. Initiative by Cindy Jacobs
      • Unity of the Races, churches, ministries working together “as one”.
      • Detroit will be a restored, prosperous city where a “Great Awakening” will occur.
      • University students and young adults across Michigan and the nation will be part of TheCall
       Lou Engle may lead some to of these folks to genuine salvation in Christ, but the Third Wave evangelicals are part of a "counterfeit revival" movement.The Third Way political party and the Third Wave evangelical are working hand-in-hand to bring in a new Evangelicalism that is ecumenical.[3]

      "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof [are] the ways of death." Proverbs 14:12

      Newt Gingrich and the Third Way


      Newt is an advocate of the Cabala.

      Newt Gingrich, a globalist who has endorsement from those connected to dominion theology, the New Apostolic Reformation, Mormons, New Agers and misled evangelicals appear to be working together whether they know it or not. 

      In 1994, Gingrich made it perfectly clear that he was committed to the “Third Way” also known as Communitarianism. Gore, Clinton, Gingrich and other globalists continue to promote “Third Way” thinking which combines Socialism with Capitalism. Newt is a friend and promoter of Alvin Toffler who wrote “Third Wave” also known as “Third Way.”

      (YouTube link) (Alvin Toffler's explanation of the Third Way)

      The chairman of Newt’s organization “Renewing American Leadership” is Pastor Jim Garlow, who has proclaimed that “I have interviewed persons who have talked specifically with Glenn about his personal salvation – persons extremely well known in Christianity – and they have affirmed (using language evangelicals understand), 'Glenn is saved'…He understands receiving Christ as Savior.” Garlow has co-written the book, “Reformer’s Pledge” with NAR leaders, C. Peter Wagner, Cindy Jacobs, Lance Wallnau, and seven others.


      Why are evangelicals, like Garlow, working with the NAR and globalist Newt Gingrich? Newt has been praised by New Agers, according to columnist Steve Farrell and columnist Daniel Sayani, saying Gingrich views environmentalism as a “global religion of peace.” 

      The NAR is pushing for a Christian globalism that involves building God’s Kingdom on earth with a Christian theocracy. Beck’s Mormonism believes in a Mormon Kingdom of God on earth. The globalist, such as John D. Rockefeller Jr., believe in a Kingdom of God on earth through global governance and Communitarian and New Agers desire a harmonic convergence and one-world system. 

      Why are evangelicals working alongside of Newt and the NAR, and Mormon Glenn Beck? This is part of the religious Trojan Horse Brannon has been warning evangelicals not to take part in.

      Note: Links and photos were not part of the original article.


      Please read this updated information of the Third Way. After further research, the NAR are followers of Newt Gingrich, but the Emergent Church is who we should be looking at.

      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!
