This is one I’m sure many will take some issue with. I’m not posting about this to encourage anyone to do some of the things noted in the film. But I do want you to be informed and you can make of it as the Lord leads based on prayer and your study of the Word of God. I’m not trying to seek for anyone not to pay their taxes, Romans 13. I’m not trying to have you join the group promoted at the end of the film and YOU KNOW I’m not trying to promote Ron Paul. However the film by now deceased filmmaker Aaron Russo is very interesting.

It is on YouTube in 11 parts:

• America: Freedom to Fascism (1-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (2-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (3-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (4-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (5-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (6-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (7-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (8-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (9-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (10-11)
• America: Freedom to Fascism (11-11)

Being a secular film, of course it seeks answers in works of man and not in everlasting life through the Lord Jesus. It speaks of THE CHIP, which I suspect may well be THE MARK, but short of true faith on Christ, all alive when The Mark is given will accept it.

You know, there is real talk about putting RFID chips into our troops, our children and you too.

• Tracking The Troops With Microchips
• The Microchip
• Bill O’Reilly and Roger Ebert – RFID implants

God’s Word will be fulfilled, every jot!

The only names in the book of life of the Lamb who has been slain and have been in that book since the foundation of the world, are saints who are saved by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. If you don’t know Jesus, you better start here and begin learning of him. Because only those who believe in Him will be saved. And there is no hope in any other, not even (non Christ believing) groups that are leery of RFID chips. In the end, the Lord will protect His own, which are the saints. And saints, you better keep a watchful eye.

So far, there is just one source for the report and everybody is trying to figure out if it’s true, but reader of this blog SteelGator noted a most interesting read.

Watergate-Era Judiciary Chief of Staff: Hillary Clinton Fired For Lies, Unethical Behavior

If this is true, Hillary might not even have a chance in 2012!

update 4/1/2008 3:06PM: No kidding, this is probably real! Check out the copy of a NY Post article posted on Free Republic back on 6/9/2003, Hillary Rodham’s 1974 Watergate “Procedures were Ethically Flawed”.

update 4/1/2008 3:14PM: Ed Klein: Hillary Clinton Covered Up for JFK (article dated July 15, 2005) This article says Hillary was “ordered” to do the deed.

update 4/1/2008 3:38PM: Clarification: The Klein article says Hillary was “ordered” to suppress information that exposed dirt JFK did, it does not say she was ordered to work up a false legal brief.

update 4/1/2008 4:19PM: Best to read all 3 articles in full. Each gives a different piece of things. Basically she was doing dirt and others working with her and even over her were also involved. She was found to be especially dirty though. It does not show her to be a woman of good integrity. Not the kind of person you’d want heading an entire branch of the Federal government.

A most interesting article:

The university that supports false doctrines and has false teachers on their board of regents apparently disciplines the ones that don’t cooperate with government. I guess some standard is better than none at all. They also came down appropriately hard on Carlton Pearson when he took up the heresy of Universalism.

I’ll open this post by saying for those who don’t know, this blog is 100% ANTI-MITT ROMNEY. This blog is also 100% ANTI-PULPIT PIMPS.

So I’m having an interesting dilemma here. Because it seems that while I’ve been cautiously supportive of Senator Charles Grassley investigating pulpit pimps, he might be a Mitt Romney fan. All roads seem to indicate that he’s shown supportive signals for Romney, while avoiding any formal endorsement of any 2008 Presidential candidate.

• This pro-Romney blog is very happy that “Chuck” sent one of their guys a nice letter and have it posted. Why would a US Senator send a letter to someone clearly working on behalf of a candidate?
• Recent news article: Grassley predicts Romney as Iowa caucuses winner.

Are these events coincidental? I’m not thinking they are. I fully respect Senator Grassley’s position as a member of our government, but this man who claims to be Baptist blowing favorable wind to flip-flopping Mormon Mitt Romney is not sitting well with me. It also makes one consider Grassley’s call to investigate the pimps. While the pimp vipers get no support from me, perhaps their being investigated might be a means to keep them from possibly tossing any weight behind any anti-Romney efforts? Given these investigations, they’ll probably all be low key on election matters. Just a speculative thought. I know the pimps have doctrine that reeks the aroma of what Mormons teach, but I can’t say all of them would have swung in Romney’s favor.

Both Romney and the Pulpit Pimps losing in their respective challenges would not be a bad thing, but this strange linkage of events does not look good.

Reader Florida Writer informed me of this one and it’s a doozy! 6 Big time pimps in the Religious Industry are now under US Senate scrutiny. (Others sent messages about this, but Florida Writer was first.)

Other documents in the article:

• What Happens Next? A Q and A letter from Senator Grassley.
• Letter to Without Walls International Church
• Letter to World Healing Center Church, Inc.
• Letter to New Birth Missionary Baptist Church
• Letter to World Changers Church International
• Letter to Joyce Meyer Ministries
• Letter to Kenneth Copeland Ministries

Senator Chuck Grassley is a Baptist, so he’s not part of some non-Christian group. Still I’m sure some will claim this is an attack against the church. Pimps preach a false gospel, so rather than then being honest representatives of “the church”, the pimps actually are the ones who attack the body of Christ, they attack the church with false gospel.

As I’ve said before, I’m always slow to seek government intervention. I’ve only felt that their misdeeds regarding IRS scrutiny are worthy of government intrusion and it looks like that is the angle Senator Grassely is taking. Gathering information that would relate to abuses of IRS regulations.

But the fact the government is stepping up pressure could have one of 5 possible outcomes:

1. These 6 pimps are taken down, other pimps do a little to straighten up in fear and that’s the end of it. But the games continue with slight adjustments.
2. These 6 pimps get a slap on the wrist and all decent churches end up having to endure more scrutiny that costs them in time and effort.
3. These 6 pimps get a slap on the wrist, other pimps do a little to straighten up in fear and that’s the end of it. The games continue with slight adjustments.
4. This all plays out as a neat political game and ends with nothing changing at all.
5. This all plays out as a neat political game and ends with the pimps making another self made voluntary oversight group, that leaves as many questions as groups like the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA). See Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability is an honorable organization?

The bottom line is that government can’t keep a bad corporation in line very well and we know the Sarbanes-Oxley Act has done little, but make more paperwork for corporations. There have been a few show-piece convictions since government went after bad corporations, but that’s about it. Overall everything is the same. I’m not saying US business is as bad as some business affairs in other nations, but little has changed. Don’t expect anything more with government going after pulpit pimps. I expect some combination of the 5 items I noted above, but in the end much won’t change. Unless government is so intrusive on churches that it hampers honest ministry efforts and even then the corruption won’t go away. It will simply change its style a bit.

Hopefully this won’t become an angle to persecute good churches in the future. No matter what government does, pimps will continue like the underground payola that goes on in radio even after government went after that.

Yes this might all go well and be a matter of an avenger of God taking action against evil, Romans 13:3-4. It’s just the history of these things does not make me feel all will go well. May the Lord’s will be done.

For church matters saints need to stand up and contend strongly for the faith. The more saints stand up, it will help real saints to get out from the influence of pimps. Leaving the vipers who work for Satan and those who are Satan’s children dancing together. Because money changing in the Lord’s name is noted in Acts 8:18-23 and even before that. So don’t expect it to go away till the Lord Jesus Christ returns for the church. Jesus died for the sheep, John 10:11. And He will return for His sheep. The pimps and others will burn, because they are NOT SHEEP. They are the goats, Matthew 25:31-46, Matthew 7:15-23, Revelation 20:10-15, Revelation 21:8. We need saints to speak out for the good of the sheep. The sheep will hear the Lord when he calls them to repentance in their own hearts. The goats will never hear, because God has allowed their ears to be covered, 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12. They are not sheep and will never hear the Lord’s voice, 2 Corinthians 4:3-4. So regardless of what government does, saints must continue in the gospel for the good of the sheep. Spread the message around the world, for the sheep! Spread the truth and the sheep will hear it.

Ole Anthony was very much involved in seeking government intervention. And this gets Ole’s name out. Maybe he’ll be on TV speaking before Congress. But Ole Anthony is running a cult. And Ole’s influence can be seen in the list of pimps targeted. Notice that TD Jakes is one of the biggest lying pimps of all, but he is not one of the 6 mentioned. Certainly if you’re only going after 6, he would be one of the 6. Ole Anthony has made it known he’s kind of a fan of Jakes’ in some respects, so I doubt when Antony was pressuring Congress about pimps that he mentioned Jakes’ name much. And what about Joel Osteen? How come NOBODY EVER SEEMS TO LOOK INTO WHAT HE’S DOING WITH THE MONEY HE’S ROLLING IN? See TD Jakes and Joel Osteen Enrich Themselves in Jesus’ Name (Video). Not that the 6 listed don’t warrant scrutiny, but the 6 selected don’t include some of the BIGGEST PIMPS taking in the most of all and possibly abusing the most.

So my feelings about all of this are obviously mixed. I feel we need more saints spreading the truth to help the sheep, because government can’t save a soul and government can’t tell anyone the truth of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. To me, this changes nothing for what Christ has called saints to do and we should not sit back thinking government can do what the Lord called the church to do. Obviously God uses government for some things at times and they will play their role, but saints must continue to CONTEND FOR THE FAITH, Jude 1:3.
