There was a time when Western media wrote truthful articles about current events and people: “pertaining to or characterized by the principle of political or social equality for all”. (Source) There was a time when we the consumers could actually believe what was being reported. But over time objective whole truth reporting became compromised, twisted and exploited to skew, edit and distract from the whole truth of a subject or person in order to create a false narrative that suits the deceitful interests of those minded to create a narrative of their own interests and goals. Illegal editing of truth falsely portrays a situation or person. It’s a libelous enterprise.
Today, especially in the political arena, we see the evils of that kind of illegal editing of the truth to falsely portray a situation or person. Western media organizations have become very biased in reporting of what’s supposed to be the truth, but virtually nothing can be trusted as truthful from the corporate media today. This is just one reason of many why our country is so divided. Hatred and distrust run very deep on all sides of the political spectrum. As an example of what’s wrong with the media, President Donald Trump has sued certain media and has won millions of dollars in media liability. And now, President Trump may sue the BBC for $1 billion for falsely editing the truth of his Jan. 6, 2021 speech which falsely portrayed him and his J6 intention at that time.
I offer that backstory as an example of what’s also occurred to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And if you don’t think illegal editing of the Gospel is real, then you haven’t paid attention. How else did the LGBTQ+ agenda get into most churches; or social justice and DEI make it into churches; and how else did unbelief of the end-time testimony of Christ become so popular for the resurrection rapture “at the last day” (John 6:40, 44); John 5:28–29; Matt. 13:24–30, 37–43; Matt. 24:29–31? How else do most churches ordain women pastors when God’s word explicitly forbids the same, 1 Tim. 2:11–14 and 1 Cor. 14:34–37? And how else has lifeless and soul-less AI and ChatGPT made its way into pastors’ sermons and study preparations? It’s spiritual harlotry! How else do many pastors hold illegal interfaith prayer meetings with leaders of other religions, especially with leaders of Islam and Judaism when God strongly commands against it, 2 Cor. 6:14–16?
As you know from my many years of writing TheFridayLetter.com my burden, calling and focus is for the destitute failure of evangelical church leadership to let Jesus Christ be the LORD of the truth for the end-times and preparing believers to endure to the end of the seven-year tribulation, Matt, 24:13, to soon set upon the world, rather than the false narrative of a pre-trib rapture that deceives millions of believers, leading them to depart from the testimony of Jesus Christ. It’s a fact that most professing Christians do not study God’s word free of editorial biases that skew the truth in order to control a traditional church narrative. In the case of numerous Gospel truths, editing by silence occurs at the mandate of church leaders who are committed to protect certain traditions of men that falsely portray truth making the word of God of no effect, Mark 7:13. As regards the resurrection rapture, most pastors will never quote Scriptures as I quote in the third paragraph above plus many more because they have a tradition to protect that falsely changes what Jesus said. It’s an illegal editing process by silencing truth in the hearing of people while those same people simply nod their heads in ignorant agreement, never knowing exactly what God’s word really says about the truth that Christ gathers “His elect” “Immediately after the tribulation” (Matt. 24:29–31) and not before the tribulation. Do those deceived by the pre-trib rapture fairytale even see themselves as “His elect”, and do they even know what being “His elect” means?” The “elect” are referred to many times in the New Testament and in most cases refers to redeemed believers of Christ. And those “elect” are again revealed at Matt. 24:29–31.
Illegal editing of the Gospel for another narrative has deceived many people. But God’s Holy Spirit warns every pastor saying, “I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables” (2 Tim. 4:1–4). [My emphasis] We are there! Falsely portraying truths in these end-times is rife in many churches because many pastors are more interested in keeping people happy and content than preaching the truth of what Jesus said to keep them coming back to continue giving a false tithe allowing them to operate as a big business. Look into it, the tithe people are told to give the church is another huge deceit!
Another issue that will savage believers who believe the false pre-trib rapture are warnings that Christ gave: “And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man … Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot … Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed” (Luke 17:26–30). This world will soon witness the days of Gen. 6:4 saying, “There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown”. Soon, non-human entities will come upon the earth, ancient false gods that roamed in the days of Noah and Lot. The world calls them alien beings, UAP’s and UFO’s. The world and Hollywood has prepared unbelievers to receive them as our superiors. But the church has not prepared believers for them. Illegal silence has edited God’s word. But we believers who actually believe Christ know that those non-human beings are demonic spirits that will manifest in forms and will lead millions of unsuspecting people to perdition. Yet, the organized church is silent. They again illegally edit the Gospel by silence which will devastate many believers who were promised to escape this world in a pre-trib rapture before any of those non-human beings or Seal, Trumpet and Bowl judgments of Revelation occur. Non-redeemable beings are gathering in the heavens even now and will be revealed to humanity in the near future. Are you now ready?
Do not believe governments or the world’s media organizations because the truth is not in them. And regarding organized churches, I caution you with all sincerity, be careful what you receive from most pulpits because pastors preach according to their denominational indoctrination. Many say they believe the Holy Bible as the inerrant word of God, but in practice their denominational biases take precedence. In this regard remember, “The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, [especially in the churches] and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved” (2 Thess. 2:9–10). That warning applies to both unbelievers in the world and to many unbelievers in organized churches as they believe only what they want.
My second book “ON EAGLES’ WINGS” explains in detail how to know Christ and find God’s Bozrah sheepfold of safety and place of provision for the last 1,260 days of the great tribulation.
