大使命19

我們需要一個覺醒

今日基本上有四大世界觀：基督教世界觀、伊斯蘭教世界觀、世俗世界觀和馬克斯主義世界觀，每一個世界觀的最原始形式基本上與其他世界觀相互衝突。倘若你瞭解這些世界觀，你就幾乎瞭解今日世界的所有衝突。

這些世界觀的基本二分法就是人民是為政府而存在，除了基督教以外。在基督教裡，政府是為人民而存在，儘管在應用上不總是如此呈現。當基督教世界觀很快要在西方處於劣勢，政府變得更多支配個人的權益，同時現在在許多國家卻是人類歷史上個人享有最大自由的時候，基督教世界觀在亞洲與一些東歐國家更加穩固成長。

目前是世界最大經濟體的中國，已經慢慢更多走向個人自由，從經濟自由開始，在一些地區有越來越多的宗教自由與言論自由。進展或許緩慢，卻相當有效率。

在同個時候，馬克斯主義與大部分伊斯蘭教結合，當然這並不包括無神論思想，他們只是吸收與應用馬克斯主義的實用經濟和政府原則。並不是每一個伊斯蘭國家都是如此，但在穆斯林兄弟會有比較大影響力的國家多半是如此。

馬克斯主義悄悄蔓延在西歐與美國的組織中將近一世紀之久，雖然斷斷續續出現，卻持續進展。他們是有系統性與效率性的策略滲透，掌管遍及教育、媒體、娛樂與藝術的主要文化權力中心。從這些地方，他們很容易就可以撲向政府。

馬克斯所接管的『權杖』是對家庭的統治，藉著對國家的忠貞來削弱對家庭的忠誠。當此發生時，人民早已被完全制服，這些在馬克斯的著作裡都寫得一清二楚。在美國他們已順利地按著計畫進行，他們所接管的部分已經來到最後階段，有系統的侵蝕與瓦解美國的傳統家庭。

有趣的是，聯邦調查局（FBI）攔截了許多贊助穆斯林兄弟會（MB）的美國組織關鍵資料庫，MB用一個平行的四點策略來征服美國，稱之為『文化聖戰』。這在美國聯邦法院對於美國vs聖地基金會（此為美國最大的穆斯林慈善機構）的訴訟案中，都有充分文件證明，並證實其為真實資料。

馬克斯主義與穆斯林兄弟會二者的策略似乎一前一後，目前雙方都接近他們策略的最後階段。馬克斯的最後階段是革命，而伊斯蘭則是猛烈的聖戰。美國若不覺醒，我們非常接近前所未有的全國暴力。我們已經沒有為自己土地爭戰超過一個世紀，許多的美國人甚至無法想像這樣的事；然而，它已經很靠近了。

幾乎所有在美國政府裡瞭解這些事情的情報單位與安全警察專家，現在都遭到整肅。同時，一些在美國vs聖地基金會訴訟案被列為未起訴的共犯組織，例如美國與伊斯蘭關係委員會（CAIR），現在反而與我們的國防部、國土安全部和中央情報局簽署『敏感性訓練』（sensitivity training）。敏感性訓練所成就的恰好相反─蒙住了那些宣誓要護衛憲法者的眼睛，現在美國正受到內外敵人的威脅。

從FBI所獲取的資料，以及美國聯邦法院的證據都清楚顯示，穆斯林兄弟會的策略是要利用『政治性正確』和我們的憲法來摧毀我們，他們同時是美國境外與境內的敵人！要成為『未起訴的共犯』指的是法院有證據來起訴他們，卻不是由法院來做，這是首席檢察官的責任。然而，此責任從來沒有被付諸行動。

我在拉警報嗎？沒錯，我們需要警鈴來甦醒我們。我們應該在每一個地方，用每一種方式來發出警報。在我們的土地上有許多勇敢的聲音正如此做，此時他們多半遭到排擠或被要求消音。當他們從他們影響的位置上被有計畫地移除，他們的位置往往被最容易受騙或配合的人取而代之。

不管馬克斯主義或聖戰份子是否刻意地連結，對我們並不重要。正如以弗所書六章12節告訴我們，我們並不是與屬血氣的爭戰，乃是與那些執政的、掌權的、管轄這幽暗世界的，以及天空屬靈氣的惡魔爭戰。這遠大過於人類手法與策略所能做成，我們必須在我們的政府與文化權力中心，以我們的知識專業或以任何方式盡可能的投入，來對此做出反擊，特別是設法選出那些對此瞭解並有勇氣做一些事的人。即便如此，這些邪惡的影響現在已經在我們的國家組織當中撒種，其範圍大到我們需要另一次的大覺醒才能避免美國從民主共和中瓦解。

光比黑暗更有能力，真理可以叫我們得自由。然而，美國多數教會並沒有成為暴露黑暗的光，反而屈服於使徒保羅警告在末日會發生的社會歪風─人們只聽他們想聽的，或使他們感覺很好的事情。這使我們像把頭埋入沙裡的鴕鳥，好使我們不需要看見威脅，以為這樣威脅就可以離去。威脅不會離去，反而會以更快的腳步成長，越來越大聲地嘲笑著我們愚蠢的盲目。

在美國若沒有一個覺醒，我們非常接近前所未有的暴力。若有一個覺醒，我們會從正發生在我們身上的事當中醒悟過來，並把它扔掉，回到主面前。唯有這樣做我們才能瞭解我們的終極命定；我們正在斷定谷，我們將在哪一邊？

Our Need for an Awakening - The Great Commission, Part 19
Week 19, 2014 
Rick Joyner 

Today, there are basically four worldviews: The Christian worldview, Islamic worldview, secular worldview, and the Marxist worldview. Each of these in their pure form is in basic conflict with the others. If you understand these worldviews, you will have a basic understanding of virtually all of the conflicts in the world today.

A fundamental dichotomy between these worldviews is that in all, but Christianity, the people exist for the government. In Christianity, however, the government exists for the people. This has not always played out in application. As the Christian worldview is quickly losing ground in the West, governments are becoming more dominant over the rights of individuals. While this is now happening in the very nations that gave birth to the greatest individual liberties in history, the Christian worldview is growing stronger in Asian and some eastern European nations.

China, now the world’s largest economy, has been moving slowly but resolutely toward increasing individual liberty, beginning with economic freedoms and now increasingly in areas of religious freedom and freedom of speech. It may be slow, but it is effective.

At the same time, Marxism is being combined by much of Islam, excluding atheism of course, but the practical economic and governmental principles of Marxism are being absorbed and applied. It is not true in every Islamic nation, but in those nations where the Muslim Brotherhood has greater influence.

Marxism has been creeping into the fabric of the nations of Western Europe and the Americas for nearly a century. Although it has come in fits and starts, it continues to make inroads. This has been accomplished with a systematic and effective strategy of infiltrating and dominating the central cultural power centers of education, media, entertainment, and the arts. From these, it is an easy jump to government.

The “crown jewel” of Marxist takeover is the dominance of the family, whereby fidelity to the state eclipses family loyalty. When this happens, the people are primed for complete subjugation. This is all plainly spelled out in Marxist writings. They have brilliantly followed their plan in America where their takeover has reached the final stages with the systematic erosion and breakup of the traditional family.

It is interesting that in an FBI raid that captured many of the key archives and documents of the Muslim Brotherhood’s (MB) sponsored organizations in America, the MB had a parallel four-point strategy called “cultural jihad” for subjugating America. This was all well documented and authenticated in U.S. Federal Court in the U.S. vs. the Holy Land Foundation Trial.

Both the Marxist and Muslim Brotherhood strategies seem to be working in tandem. Both are now operating the next to last stage of their strategy. The last stage for the Marxists is revolution; for Islamists, it is violent jihad. Without an awakening in America, we are tottering very close to unprecedented violence across our land. Not having to fight on our own land for over a century, many Americans are not even capable of imagining such a thing. However, it is very close.

Almost all of the intelligence and security policy professionals in the U.S. Government who understand these things have now been purged. At the same time, organizations such as CAIR (Council for American-Islamic Relations) that were named unindicted co-conspirators in the U.S. vs. Holy Land Foundation Trial are now contracted to give “sensitivity training” in our Defense Department, Department of Homeland Security, and the CIA. This “sensitivity training” is accomplishing the exact opposite—blinding those who vowed to defend the Constitution that is now threatened from enemies both foreign and domestic.

Those documents seized by our FBI, and accepted as evidence in our U.S. Federal Court, were very clear about the MB’s strategy to use “political correctness” and our own Constitution to destroy us. They are enemies both foreign and domestic! To be an “unindicted co-conspirator” means that the Court has evidence to indict them, but it is not the Court’s place to do that, it is the Attorney General’s responsibility. However, this was never done.

Am I being an alarmist? Yes! We need an alarm to wake us up. We should be sounding the alarm in every place and in every way. There are numerous courageous voices in our land doing this, and they are being effectively marginalized or silenced at this time. As they are being systematically removed from their place of influence, they are being replaced by the most easily duped or compliant.

Whether or not the Marxists and jihadists are being intentionally coordinated does not matter to us. As we are told in Ephesians 6:12, we are not warring against flesh and blood, but against spiritual principalities and powers in the heavenly places. This is far bigger than anything that mere human ingenuity and strategy can pull off. We must counter this in our government and cultural power centers by being knowledgeable and engaged in any way we can, especially seeking to elect those who have understanding and the courage to do something about it. Even so, these evil influences are now sown within the fabric of our nation to the extent that it will take another Great Awakening to avoid the collapse of America as a democratic republic.

Light is more powerful than darkness. The truth can set us free. However, rather than being light which exposes darkness, much of the church in America has succumbed to the malady the Apostle Paul warned would happen in the last days—people would only be able to hear things that tickle their ears, those things that make them feel good. This has made us like the ostrich that buries its head in the sand so that it does not have to see the threats, believing that will make the threat go away. They are not going away. They are growing at an increasingly fast pace, laughing louder and louder at our foolish blindness.

Without an awakening, we are getting very close to unprecedented violence in America. With an awakening, we will wake up to what is being done to us, throw it off, and return to the Lord. Only by this can our best and ultimate destiny be realized. We are in the Valley of Decision. Which will it be?
