How Obama Revolution Came to America

From an Accuracy in Media report:

S. Steven Powell wrote in his 1987 book, Covert Cadre, that the revolutionary activity advocated by Marxist Antonio Gramsci involved the need to “infiltrate autonomous institutions—schools, media, churches, public-interest groups—so as radically to transform the culture, which determines the environment in which political and economic policies are played out.” Or, as Carl Boggs, author of Gramsci’s Marxism wrote, “the role of revolutionary theory is to create the foundation of a new socialist order precisely through the negation and transcendence of bourgeois society.” This “transcendence of bourgeois society,” Boggs explains, was the basis for Gramsci’s first priority—“the multi-dimensional transformation of civil society.”

­The key to Gramsci’s formula for revolution centered on the idea of breaking what he called the “hegemony” or mind-control exercised by the ruling capitalists over the masses. Bourgeois societies were ruled, Gramsci believed, by educating the citizenry that their accommodation of the moral, political, and cultural values defined by the governing system was in their best interests. Hence, Gramsci designed a “reversal strategy” that would silently challenge the existing culture and value-systems that dominated bourgeois governance. That is to say, his formula was based on an ideological struggle that would transform a whole range of activities in civil society, including Judeo-Christian values, the family, schools, unions, and politics and popular trust in the existing government.

There are ten easy steps toward a progressive-socialist-Marxist civil society: change the popular consensus; destroy Christianity, the traditional family, and existing social mores; transform the culture; install a radical Left mind-control; attain political power; impose strict control of the military and law enforcement; restrict freedom; socialize the economy; erase American sovereignty; and embrace a world without borders.

Four political arenas have been constructed by the progressive-socialist-Marxist Left to “format” or erase America’s collective brain and install a mind-control program into what is to become a robotic America of theological radicalism, socialist unionism, radical community-state politics, and the “Shadow Party” owned and operated by billionaires such as George Soros.

New Book Release


Collegium Books New Release Meant to Assist People in Finding Their True Selves

According to Recent Polling, Fifty-One Percent of Americans Still Searching for Purpose and Meaning.

Could it be true that fifty-one percent of us are actually missing the purpose of our existence? Is there supposed to be more to life than just existing? Many people have given up on their dreams because they think the dream is too big for them to accomplish. Then there are others who are not even aware of the reality of a dream. This is also expressed in the Christian community as well.

In the book, “Is God Calling You to Ministry,” author Mark David Shaw states that every human has a purpose. He affirms that creation demands destiny and that nothing is created without a reason or purpose for it. This means that every human is called into a ministry fit perfectly for them.

If this is actually true, then high school graduates who answer the question, “What are you going to do with your life?” may not have a clue as to what they are actually created for. Those that are in the twilight years of their lives might be thinking that it is too late for them. The rest of us between those two extremes, are left wondering, “Did we choose correctly, and if not, what do we do now?”

Shaw believes that it is never too late to begin living one’s destiny. He insists that once a person identifies and pursues the thing for which they were created, they will step into an environment of life satisfaction. This is because their Maker made them uniquely qualified for the work that He formed them to do.

The author reveals that by saying “yes” to your purpose, you just opened the door and took the hand of the One who made the universe. He will now come to your side to help you attain things that are not possible for you to accomplish on your own. Yes, your dream really is bigger than you, but not if you have a Creator that waits to assist you in accomplishing those things! When Jesus said, “Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me…” your Creator just invited you to take your part, and because a yoke takes two oxen, Jesus will take His part to assist you in achieving your destiny! Author Mark David Shaw is the bishop of Collegium Bible Institute, where he has been training men and women in ministry for twenty years. He has developed the curriculum for CBI to equip the next generation of leaders.

Death to the Unborn!

Death to the unborn! The title of this writing is shocking. It should be. As I watched the election last night, I saw the jubilation of the crowd of the victor. As they began to chant “yes we can” all I could hear is “death to the unborn!” This election represents changes to the supreme court that can last 30 years. America, you want change, you got it! Obama has already made known his thoughts concerning this subject. He has expressed that he does not want anything to happen to roe v wade.

What so many revealed with their vote last night is that they are more concerned with their finances than they are with the oppressed. I find it ironic that an African American, one of the most oppressed groups in this nation’s history, is now in a place where the oppression of the most innocent, most powerless, most unseen among us is on going forward with full approval.

My father used to tell us to vote our conscience. America does not know what that means. The conscience of this country is seared. That small nagging voice that has guided the morals of a people, that intuitive knowledge of good and evil is finally been silenced. The goal of our enemy is to quiet our decency and sense of justice so that decadence and injustice can be accomplished.

If you voted for Obama, you may be angry with this writing. Guess what? No one likes to be faced with the truth if they are found on the wrong side of it. So I understand your anger, but I don’t understand your refusal to change when you realize what you have done. The result of this election has caused me to have to coin a new phrase to explain this phenomenon. I call it “cultural conditioning syndrome” or “cult syndrome” for short.

What is “cult syndrome?” It is the systematic conditioning of a people to accept the immoral in every cause, the unjust in every court, and even the murder of its own citizenry for the so called good of the whole. Sound familiar? It should, for this model has been used for millennium to take over and destroy a nation. Look at Greece, look at Rome, look at Germany, look at Russia and you will see this same pattern of cult syndrome.

You might be tempted to think this is just the ranting of someone whose side lost. It is not; let me focus you toward the truth. This is the ranting of someone who still has a conscience; someone who sees the destruction of its unborn as the highest form of injustice; someone who realizes that this barbaric practice will continue for perhaps the next 30 years and beyond because of this election. This isn’t about my loss, this is about the loss of a nation.

If you find yourself disagreeing with me, take a good hard look at why you are so supportive of abortion. You might be a victim of “cult syndrome.” Cult syndrome answers for us why the German people participated in the systematic slaughter of six million Jews with jubilation. Is that repugnant to you? If it is, why isn’t abortion just as repugnant to you? You might be a victim of cult syndrome. There is help for you, it is called realization, repentance, and redemption. I hope you find it.

You will not find it in the pulpits of those who do not see their own nation rotting from within; you will not find it from the hucksters selling indulgences in the form of televangelism. The only hope that this nation has is for its citizenry to seek the Lord individually and repent. How can a just God bless a nation who puts their own selfish needs above the principles of God? How can a just God bless a nation that has destroyed human souls by taking their life and spilling their blood? How can a just God bless a nation that prioritizes money at the expense of murder?

I hope you find your voice and that you throw caution to the wind and actually stand up for the moral principles of God that were good enough for your founding fathers to cite in the very creation of this great nation. Are you willing to take your place and speak out in the market place? If your sense of being nice and civil means that you silence yourself, you are no longer being nice, you are a victim of cult syndrome.

Ponder The Example of Israel

One of the things I love about the Old Testament is that it shows us examples of cause and effect. I see the American church as blind and deaf to the cause and effect principle. Some tribulation comes into a person's life and their first response is to blame God. "Why have you done this to me?" "I thought you loved me!" "Why is this happening to me?" Yet if we would just take a close look at our character and our behavior we can find a cause and effect.

Ask yourself how many times your first response to trouble was, "Did I cause this?" "Am I just reaping something I have sowed?" It may be that you did not, however, if this is our response to trouble it shows that we are alert to the spiritual principle of cause and effect.

Many Christians do not have a fear of God in their lives. They see God as love, but they don't connect the dots that if God is your Father and He loves you, then He must discipline else He would not love you. The author of Hebrews brings this out when he talks about the love of God. You may begin to protest, "But I am spiritual!" "I heal the sick!" "I cast out demons!" "I speak in tongues!" "But I prophesy!" This might be a good time to read the following scripture.
1 Corinthians 10:1-8 ~NASB95~

1 For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea;
2 and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3 and all ate the same spiritual food;
4 and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ.
5 Nevertheless, with most of them God was not well-pleased; for they were laid low in the wilderness.
6 Now these things happened as examples for us, so that we would not crave evil things as they also craved.
7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink, and stood up to play."
8 Nor let us act immorally, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.


Israel was like the church today. They were all baptized, they all ate the same spiritual food (Bible) they all drank the same spiritual drink (Holy Spirit) Yet God was not pleased with them and they were, let me use a more direct term, KILLED! in the wilderness.

If Apostle Paul is using their example for our benefit then the same things can happen to us. Your appeal to spirituality is useless when your character is so out of balance with what God desires. You may get spiritual goose bumps in worship, but then do you go home and lie or cheat? Do you rob and steal? Do you covet and lust? Are you primarily concerned with eating, drinking, and playing?

Note, I am not condemning eating, drinking, or playing. I am pointing out that if these things are priorities, then your life is out of balance. "What should be my priority?" you ask. Jesus said, seek first (primary, before all others) the kingdom of God and its righteousness...

It is not just seeking the kingdom of God, but its righteousness. Righteousness is seeking to life rightly.

Micah 6:8 ~NASB95~
8 He has told you, O man, what is good;
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justice, to love kindness,
And to walk humbly with your God?


Making mistakes will never stop, but neither should the acknowledgement and turning from them stop. When we refuse to acknowledge sin, we are disciplined by the Father. What is the end design of discipline?

Hebrews 12:11 ~NASB95~
11 All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.


Okay, we have come full circle. If you seek righteousness truly, you will love discipline. Ouch! "That's a bit over the top isn't it?" Not really. Once you have experienced discipline and you have tied it to the cause, you will not want to enter into the cause any longer for the price you pay is too high. That has always been the reason behind discipline and law. The penalty is more painful than the pleasure of breaking that law.

The great danger here is not realizing the cause of your pain. It is like getting burned by a flame and not being able to figure out what is causing these blisters on your hand. You are doomed to keep repeating the action until you associate the cause of pain to it. Once you do, the pain conditions you to avoid the cause.

The Hidden Truth about Planned Parenthood

Have you ever thought of why Margaret Sanger started Planned Parenthood? Did you know that she wanted to get rid of the African Americans? Please read the article below that was found on the World Net Daily web-page and watch the YouTube video: (http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=57526).

Planned Parenthood: Wanting fewer blacks 'understandable'
Abortion provider says 'yes' when 'donor' wants to reduce minorities

A student-run magazine at UCLA has revealed an undercover investigation in which representatives of Planned Parenthood, the nation's abortion industry leader, admitted willingness to accepting a financial donation targeting the destruction of an unborn black baby.

Lila Rose, who edits The Advocate, previously revealed how Planned Parenthood officials expressed a willingness to conceal statutory rape, an investigative piece that earned her an appearance on the Fox News Channel's "The O'Reilly Factor."

Now she's told WND she hopes the taped responses of Planned Parenthood officials in seven states reveal to her local UCLA community and the nation the racist leanings of the organization.

WND calls to Planned Parenthood of Idaho, which was featured in The Advocate report, requesting a comment were not returned.

"Students on campus are shocked and saddened that such a huge organization would have racist leanings in the present day," Rose told WND. "They are surprised to hear the truth about [Planned Parenthood founder] Margaret Sanger, and how the African-American community is being hurt by abortion.

"There's a lot of surprise out there. Planned Parenthood does an excellent job of covering up the facts," she said.

Sanger supported eugenics to cull those she considered unfit from the population. In 1921, she said eugenics is "the most adequate and thorough avenue to the solution of racial, political and social problems."

At one point, Sanger lamented "the ever increasing, unceasingly spawning class of human beings who never should have been born at all." Another time, Sanger wrote, "We do not want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population."

According to Bryan Fisher, executive director of Idaho Values Alliance, Planned Parenthood, which gets an estimated $200 million annually from U.S. taxpayers, has located nearly 80 percent of its clinics nationwide in minority neighborhoods, and about one-third of all abortions are performed on blacks, even though they make up only 13 percent of the population.

Some of the information about the investigation was posted on a YouTube video:

Please check out this YouTube video, it is quite shocking and everybody needs to watch and listen to it, so please watch it. It can be found at the website below, and it can be found at the bottom of the page:

Sensuality or the Gospel

2 Peter 2:1-3 ~ NASB95~1 But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. 2 Many will follow their sensuality, and by reason of them the way of the truth will be maligned; 3 and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.

The great problem with false teachers in the church is that they are able to garner large audiences. The reason, I suppose, is revealed in verse two. It is sensuality. Sensuality appeals to the natural man because it is pleasurable. People are attracted to pleasure. None of us is attracted to pain. Thus, the false teacher is skilled in pleasure peddling.

As these peddlers of pleasure offer their teachings, the victim is left with a false sense of feeling good. This becomes the addiction that brings them back for more week after week. By reason of this addictive nature to the sensual, the false teachers are able to extract large sums of money from their followers.

The Gospel cannot appeal to the sensual because the flesh is not recognized by it. You see the flesh can take credit in doing good things and the flesh seeks to justify itself in those acts. The Gospel annihilates the flesh in that it accepts the believer based only upon believing and rejects justification fostered by works. The flesh hates the Gospel. Justification comes by faith which leaves the flesh in an unrecognised position. There is no good feeling in the flesh from hearing and believing the Gospel. However, there is a good feeling.

The good feeling though is different from the senses. The Gospel brings a steady assurance that results in eternal satisfaction. The satisfaction of the flesh is very short lived. The bottom line in this is that if we follow the pleasures of the senses, we will destroy the truth. You cannot have a flesh centered message that will glorify God in all that He is. Nevertheless, you can have large followings. Sadly, we have seen these large followings fall repeatedly when the progenitor of the sensual message becomes too sensual in their own personal life.

I am not saying that all large followings are sensual. What I am saying is that we must judge what we are hearing to determine if it is just appealing to my senses or is this truth setting me free. As Pastors, we must judge our messages so that we are not appealing to the sensual. The Spirit of God rejoices in the truth because God is love. May we develop the habit of testing the spirits to see if they are of God.

Change - Good or Bad?

Change. A word that seems to have captivated our nation in this highly charged political season. The direction of change however is dependent on who you talk to. Interestingly the word comes from an Old Irish word that means crooked. Change simply means to quit going the same direction. If change is in the eye of the beholder, how do we test it to determine if it is a good thing to change or a bad thing to change?

Can we rely on popular opinion for the right direction? Hmmm. Let me think. Germany cried out for change and got Hitler. Russia cried out for change and got Stalin. Iran cried out for change and got the Ayatollahs. Those are examples of change on the bad side. But there are also examples of change for good. America cried out for change and won it's freedom. The North cried out for the abolishment of slavery and won their freedom. The Hebrews cried out for change at Egypt and won their freedom.

Popular opinion is not indicative of the right change. If we look at changes that have gone bad and the changes that have went well will a pattern emerge? Possibly. If we look at the national changes that went bad, it was often because of a lack of basic needs based upon fiduciary insufficiencies. Those changes that went well were those based upon correcting moral insufficiencies.


Need is a terrible visionary. It seems to blind us morally as we seek to survive. Survival leads us to justify the immoral to meet the need of the moment. Yet, when change is brought about to right an immorality it often has the benifit of prospering a nation. I think this can give us a definitive rule in determining a change as being good or bad.

If we look at change from the basis of need, we are blinded. If we look at change from a moral perspective, we see clearly. If however we are to look at change from a moral aspect we must have unchanging moral principles upon which we test change. If we are to have unchanging moral principles, then there must be an unchanging God who defines and upholds those principles.

Let us look at some calls for change and see if applying a moral principle to the idea brings clarity.

There was a call from one side to cut CEO salaries. They base their argument on need, not morality. The need being more money for the poor and less money for the rich. This was addressed in the Bible. Jesus tells a parable about hiring people to work in the field. Some went in the morning and some went later, but all were paid the same amount. When complaint was lodged, the employer simply responded with, "Did you not agree to work the day for the amount you recieved?" Also, the Bible says that a workman is worthy of his hire. That suggests that there are those that have greater value based upon their abilities. Communism seeks to put everyone on the same scale and calls it moral. This stifles creativity, hope, hard work, and passion.

One side calls for abortion to be safe, legal, and rare. They base their argument on need not morality. The so-called need is to limit over population, or to give young mothers a chance to suceed in life. Watch their reasons for keeping it legal. What is the moral aspect of this issue . Our founding fathers addressed it in the Declaration of Independence when they said that, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

Life! Human beings have a right to it. God is the One who defined the value of life. If a man strikes a woman with child and the child dies, life for life. That is God's position on life.

Moral standards give us the compass we need to see our way through the hodgepodge of changes we are faced with. Just make your decision by applying moral tenants to the problem, not needs. Needs only appeal to the base elements of our flesh whereas morality appeals to the higher functions of the human spirit.
