War is never ending. It’s just like in Orwell’s 1984. In the early years of this century, one terror alert folded into the next. Now we see the Turks killing our former allies, the Kurds in northern Syria. Antifa roams streets and targets patriots. Conservatives and Christians are shut down on the internet. Their free speech is deemed too hateful. Fear of EVERYTHING is promoted. And our would-be-savior is the GOVERNMENT, writ large. But ‘We will protect you’, the governments tell us. And SECURITY is promised in the name of PEACE. And PEAC[i]E will bring you SAFETY. We are living in a time when the PTB want to move us to a point where we will accept their prescription for the next phase of human development: One World Government. That is their goal. Just as it was Nimrod’s goal when he built the Tower of Babel on the Plains of Shinar, where Babylon sits. Thus, they use the cries of alarm to advance their agenda – and the sheep of that flock acquiesce…sometimes without a murmur.
THERE’S SOMETHING HAPPENING HERE
“But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.” (1Thessalonians 5:1-3)
The agenda advances. Mankind is hurtling toward a future that is more than unknowable; more than fearsome: It is instead, downright species altering. But even then, it will not stop there. The PTB, the agents of this manufactured change would have a world where everything is controlled; everything is monitored; every knee bows to the whim of the New World Order. The Scripture is very clear on that. But for right now, they package it all up in the alluring dress of “Peace and security”. What is coming however, is a political / religious / economic government that will control every aspect of human life. Accept the SYSTEM! The alternative: Death! Headlines have confirmed this even as I write this series. Here are some recent ones to chew on.
From the UK: “Scientists hope to record our dreams after successful experiments using brain implants”. Experiments are already being conducted on a dozen epilepsy patients. Electrodes have been implanted in brains. They are learning to read people’s minds.[ii] Elsewhere, researchers are discovering “that it is possible to manipulate complex visual images on a computer screen using only” the human mind.[iii] Next, listen to the words of Dr Elliott D Cohen from his article in Psychology Today. He reveals that the Department of Defense is looking into ways to remotely “control soldier’s emotions and tolerance for stress.” That’s nothing short of turning “human being into a mere machine devoid of personal freedom and autonomy.” We are right now witnessing the birth of a new species. It will not be fully human – but it will have human antecedents. It is not enough that we are living in what is fast becoming a total surveillance society. We have technologies that track our every move on the internet, , our location traced through our vehicles and our cell phones, RFID chips with GPS capabilities placed on the products we buy, technologies that can “see through” walls already in place, massive data bases that log our tendencies and our associations, virtually omnipresent surveillance cameras in malls & roadways & at busy intersections & public buildings, – and now even full body scanning that electronically undresses us at our airports. [Are ya feelin’ safer, now?] And what all this surveillance equals – is total control.[iv]
Now all of this technology brings with it a religious overtone that cannot be ignored; especially when we are talking about those that are concerned with altering the physical human condition. Listen to one university type wax almost poetic in his praise of the Transhumanist agenda. “For Transhumanism, the achievements and discoveries of science are no long for a nebulous value neutral “science for science sake” schema. No, science, operating through exponentially growing technology, is merely a tool for achieving the ideal, the utopian.”[v] Michael Burdett of Oxford talks of a “universal physical resurrection for all of humanity.” [What need have we for Jesus, then?] He explains. “This physical resurrection is not passive and spiritualized, but an imperative for humanity to enact through scientific and technological means.” This is but the human road to immortality. They would be as gods! And another Oxford Don, writes of “The Theological Impulse for Material Salvation.”[vi] It echoes of the words of Lucifer, recorded in Isaiah 14:13-14. “For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” (KJV)
Our friend Tom Horn tells us a little about how far we’ve progressed already along that road. He references H+ Magazine, which “envisions a higher life-form yet, surpassing Homo sapiens in favor of Homo sapiens 2.0, a bioengineered construct that fuses man’s original genome with animal and/or synthetic dna.”[vii] This is a phenomena that is actually going quite mainstream. We are starting to see it come out from under the radar. Horn quotes a New York Times article to lend credence to the prevalence of this emerging idea. It describes Transhumanism as “a modern-day, quasi-religious answer to the Fountain of Youth by affirming the notion that, yes indeed, humans—or at least something derived from them—can have it all.” And that’s just it: Transhumanism is now “developing into an end-times universalist religion.” That’s just what is required for a New World Order technocracy – and not coincidentally, for the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy. In his soon to be released book, Forbidden Gates, Horn documents the growing religious nature of the movement. It is a gathering of false creeds as well as New Age and Eastern religious adherents. “Gnostic Christians, Buddhists, Mormons, Islam, Raelianism, and other religious traditions among its devotees. From among these groups, new tentative “churches” arose—the Church of Virus, the Society for Universal Immortalism, Transtopianism, the Church of Mez, the Society for Venturism, the Church of the Fulfillment, Singularitarianism, and others. Today, with somewhere between 25–30 percent of transhumanists considering themselves religious, these separate sects or early “denominations” within transhumanism are coalescing their various religious worldviews around generally fixed creeds involving spiritual transcendence as a result of human enhancement.”
Mr Horn then references Dr Gregory Jordan writing in the Journal of Evolution and Technology. As he explains Jordan’s position, “transhumanism is emerging as either a new form of religion or a mirror of fundamental human ambitions, desires, longings, shared hopes, and dreams that traditional religions hold in common. In spite of denial by some of its advocates, Jordan concludes that transhumanism may be considered a rising religion because of its numerous parallels to religious themes and values involving godlike beings, the plan for eternal life, the religious sense of awe surrounding its promises, symbolic rituals among its members, an inspirational worldview based on faith, and technology that promises to heal the wounded, restore sight to the blind, and give hearing back to the deaf.”
However, this vision is not so benign as it may seem on the surface. With its artificial re-combinations and manipulations of our DNA, the lines will forever be blurred between human and animal, human and machine. This is quite the detour from God’s plans. “Then God said, ‘Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.’” (Genesis 1:27) Transhumanism then offers but a soul-less, post-human existence. Horn calls this a mockery of the Creator and his purposes. Katherine Hayles of the University of California tells us, “there are no essential differences, or absolute demarcations, between bodily existence and computer simulation, cybernetic mechanism and biological organism, robot technology and human goals.” This is an ethos of ascendant materialism, New Age pantheistic hubris and Green, almost Gaia / Mother Earth worshipping dimensions. One can almost smell her contempt of the dignity of our humanity in her next remarks. “Humans can either go gently into that good night, joining the dinosaurs as a species that once ruled the earth but is now obsolete or hang on for a while longer by becoming machines themselves. In either case…the age of the human is drawing to a close.”[viii]
What we see today then as we approach End of the Age is this mirror image of the Days of Noah in the nature of mankind’s rebellion to the Creator. Things were the same in the early days following the Flood. Man moved to the Plains of Shinar – Babylon – from whence originated a rebellion that was to have its echo and fulfillment in the Days of the End. The Rebels were trying to set up housekeeping for themselves. Here is the story recorded in Genesis 11. “Let us make a name for ourselves,” said they. “Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there. Then they said to one another, ‘Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.’ They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar. And they said, ‘Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.’ But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. And the LORD said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.” (Genesis 11:1-6)
In the modern age we have gathered together immense power, conquering the subtle and the complex. We have raised Science as our god and the scientists as our high priests of truth. Now some would have us looked to this god – and these priests for our ultimate salvation. What have need we of God – when we are gods ourselves?
