Don’t fall for the communist bait! The “No Kings” rally is meant to provoke the Republican powers that be. They want Trump to use violent crowd control tactics on Bernie Sanders and friends, so they can provoke a Civil War, and bring about a communist revolution in America. This is why they are holding these rallies at the same time the Schumer shutdown has the government in a weak spot. This is why they’re doing all of these things after having one of their own Antifa people assassinate Charlie Kirk. This whole troublemaking thing is meant to destabilize the U.S. government! DON’T TAKE THE BAIT. Be reserved; and don’t use public violence. It will only escalate the problem, and play into the hands of these American communists, who are probably trying to hide under the Antifa banner. If he got his way, Bernie Sanders would be the next Hitler or Stalin. Remember: Nazi stood for National Socialists. Some might call me an alarmist, but I’d rather overcorrect and be found wrong about something that potentially could be very serious if not considered. –J.B.

When Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face,
because he was to be blamed.
–Galatians 2:11 (KJV)–

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.
–2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV)–

Preach the Word; be instant in season, out of season;
reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
–2 Timothy 4:2 (KJV)–

Beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself…Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight. They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”
–Luke 24:27, 31-32 (NIV)–

Now there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man; for he was a doer of wonderful works, a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews and many of the Gentiles. He was the Christ. And when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not forsake him; for he appeared to them alive again the third day; as the divine prophets had foretold these and ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him. And the tribe of Christians, so named from him, are not extinct at this day.

No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court…The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted. —THE CONSTITUTION

Put them in mind to be subject to principalities and powers,
to obey magistrates, to be ready to every good work.
–Titus 3:1 (KJV)–

A librarian who still reads the Bible is arrested and executed by his totalitarian communist government. The episode revolves around his ability to reason with the communist censorship board and catch them in their own craftiness. –J.B.

Balaam the son of Beor hath said,
and the man whose eyes are open hath said: 
He hath said, which heard the words of God,
which saw the vision of the Almighty,
falling into a trance, but having his eyes open.
–Numbers 24:3-4 (KJV)–

Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray,
following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor,
who loved the wages of unrighteousness.

Face the enemy
Stare inside you
Control your thoughts
Destroy, destroy ’em all

You censor what we breathe
Prejudice with no belief
Senseless violence all around
Who is it that keeps us down?
Down

Once all free tribes
Chained down, led lives
Blood boils inside me
We’re not slaves, we’re free

–Sepultura, “Slave New World”–

—

For freedom Christ has set us free;
stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
–Galatians 5:1 (ESV)–

Let not anyone pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. BAD MEN NEED NOTHING MORE TO COMPASS THEIR ENDS, THAN THAT GOOD MEN SHOULD LOOK ON AND DO NOTHING.

Dr. John R. Rice, False Doctrines (Sword, 1970), ch. 13: “Communism and Socialism.”

1984 (Virgin Films, 1984). Available on VidAngel to clear out the bad stuff. This is what I used for the clip at the beginning of the podcast. This story was inspired by the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany. A terrifying depiction of a state where the government controls thought itself (brainwashing). Deeply anti-totalitarian and often interpreted as a critique of Marxist regimes, especially Stalinism. Strongest philosophical and psychological portrayal of the loss of freedom.

The Printing (Unusual Films, 1990). Censorship of Bible printers in the Soviet Union. This movie might be the clearest at communicating the how Marxist ideology criminalizes Christianity, suppresses free speech, and controls nearly every aspect of life. Even printing a Bible is seen as a punishable offense. Freedom of conscience and speech are shown as completely annihilated under Marxist rule. Unlike other films that touch on broader themes (war, oppression, personal stories), The Printing is focused explicitly on the suppression of freedom under Marxist ideology. There’s no ambiguity—the government is Marxist, and the loss of freedom is total and ideological.

China Cry (TBN Films, 1990). Persecution and torture of Christians by Chinese communist soldiers. Exposes the horrors of communist China’s ideological purges, forced conformity, and abuse of dissidents. Strong anti-communist message, particularly regarding religious and personal freedoms.

Doctor Zhivago (MGM, 1965). Depicts the communist revolution that happened in Russia under Vladimir Lenin starting in 1917. What happens when Marxist ideas take over a government. Its awful.

Tortured for Christ (VOM, 2018). Persecution and torture of Christians by Romanian communist soldiers. Shows the brutality of Marxist regimes, especially toward Christianity.

The Twilight Zone. “Death’s Head Revisited,” “In the Presence of Mine Enemies,” “The Obsolete Man,” and “He’s Alive,” are all against Nazism, Hitler, and totalitarianism.

Schindler’s List (Universal Pictures, 1993). Available on VidAngel and Clearplay to clear out the bad stuff. Portrays life in Nazi concentration camps.

The Hiding Place (World Wide Pictures, 1975). Portrays life in Nazi concentration camps. Persecution of Jews and Christians.

John Haley, Alleged Errors of the Bible (Whitaker House, 2019). Originally published in 1874, the year before Charles Finney died, under the title of An Examination of the Alleged Discrepancies of the Bible, he was also from the same denomination at the time: the Congregational Church. While Haley technically remained silent on the age of the earth in this book, he seems to align with a traditional literalist view of the six day creation in Genesis ch. 1, and would be much more compatible as a resource for believers in young earth creation, than Norman Geisler or Gleason Archer are. It was Charles Finney who said, “For SIX THOUSAND YEARS God has been hearing it, and still the world is spared, and the vengeance of God has not yet burst forth to smite all His guilty calumniators to Hell!” (Sermon: “The Excuses of Sinners Condemn God”). Andy Stanley was unfortunately influenced by Geisler’s approach to apologetics, which is more rationalistic than it is Bible based, and just like him, has tried to cram millions of years into Genesis ch. 1, which is outlandish and completely illogical. –J.B.
