Taking (and Holding) Ground:

a Gospel Message

by Steve Barwick

Prologue: Christianity, today, seems to be a shipwrecked religion run aground and stuck on the jagged

rocks of political correctness while other religions sail past it full-steam-ahead to their destinations. And

this is largely because Christians no longer recognize, nor believe in, the conquest theology of the Bible,

and particularly the profound conquest language of the gospel of the kingdom of God.

As a result of this politically-correct rejection of Christian conquest, other religions such as Judaism and

Islam, which are based on a conquest theology of their own (and largely center around the hatred of Jesus

Christ and His Way, which is to say, Christianity), are rapidly overtaking, and to a large extent

overcoming, Christianity, both in worldwide growth as well as in global clout and influence.

What’s the solution? It’s quite simple: Christians need to re-educate themselves to the conquest theology

of the gospel message of Jesus Christ and the Word of God. They need to get serious, for a change, about

taking ground on behalf of our heavenly Father, through His Christ, and then holding that ground on His

behalf until He comes.

If Christians in America fail to do so, we’ll soon end up like the Christians of western Europe, wading

neck deep in a growing onslaught of 52 million hostile, anti-Christian heathen Islamic forces who seek

nothing less than the complete overthrow and destruction of western Christendom, and the institution of

Islamic law and Islamic supremacy over what was formerly Christian holy ground.

With that in mind, here’s the Bible study your timid, politically correct preachers won’t give you…

Conquest Language

of the Gospel of the Kingdom of God

You’ve likely heard the saying “Christians don’t give ground, they take ground.”

That’s because our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ took ground from the devil when He gave His life on that

cross at Calvary and then rose from the dead three days later. He beat Satan at his own game, and as John

16:33 above tells us, He “overcame the world.”

In fact, the word “overcame” in that verse is translated from the Greek word nikao (G-3528) which quite

literally means “to subdue,” “to conquer,” “to overcome,” “to prevail,” and “to get the victory.”

G3528

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

2

nik-ah'-o

From G3529; to subdue (literally or figuratively): - conquer, overcome, prevail, get the victory.

Do you grasp what that means? It means He conquered this entire world and gave the victory over this

world to us, which is to say, He gave it to Christianity, His many-membered body.

He therefore expects us to move forward and take that ground from the enemy, by the same example He

left for us, which is to say, by preaching the good news of the gospel of the kingdom of God and by

teaching the Word of God.

That’s how He did it. And that’s how we’re supposed to finish the job.

The ground is already ours. He’s already conquered it for us from the cross and through His subsequent

resurrection from the tomb that could not hold Him. He now expects us to move forward in faith and take

this earth back from the devil and his fallen angels who rule over it as its heathen gods, and from the

earthly heathen populations who worship those false gods under a wide variety of names.

The point being that there’s more to the Gospel message than just “Jesus saves.” In its fullness, the

Gospel message is “Jesus CONQUERS, and then He holds out His saving arms and offers you amnesty.

He offers you a way back into His eternal family household, with all of its manifold benefits, if you truly

want it and are willing to bow to His merciful rule.”

That’s the message of the gospel of the kingdom of God, beloved. It’s a message of conquest and

reconciliation.

As it’s further written in chapter two of the great book of Colossians, our Lord and Savior not only

conquered this world, He also conquered Satan’s evil allies in the heavens when He provided us with that

atoning sacrifice and subsequent resurrection that gives us forgiveness of sins and eternal life:

Col 2:13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he

quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

Col 2:14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to

us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

Col 2:15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly,

triumphing over them in it.

In other words, when our Lord and Savior resurrected from the dead, He not only conquered the world,

and forgave us our sins, but He was also victorious over the dark powers of Satan in the heavenly realm

who thought they could show their power by destroying Him on that cross at Calvary.

Indeed, as the above verse explains, when He rose from the dead and returned to the heavenly realm –

showing Himself to have been the physical incarnation of our heavenly Father YHVH, the Self-Existent

One -- He openly paraded His great victory over the dark angelic forces of Satan to make sure they

understood they’d just lost the battle.

3

Their heavenly authority would be over from that point forward. And from that time forward, it was our

turn to take ground from the enemy – which is to say, it was time for Christians to start preaching the

gospel of the kingdom of God, and teaching the Word of God in its simplicity, fullness and truth, so as to

let the heathen populations know their gods lost the battle, and it’s time for them to join the one true God,

Jesus Christ.

Indeed, the Greek word translated “spoiled” in Colossians 2:15 above means, when translated in proper

context, “to strip of all power and authority.” And the Greek term translated “triumphing over” means “to

make an acclamatory procession.”

In other words, our Lord and Savior marched victoriously into heaven with His faithful angels behind

Him, stripped the fallen ones of their heavenly authority, and in a grand procession before the throne of

God He openly proclaimed His victory over all of them.

As it’s further written:

Heb 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself

likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of

death, that is, the devil;

Our Lord and Savior not only conquered the heathen gods (fallen angels) and stripped them of their

heavenly authority, but He also conquered Satan’s power of death. What’s more, when He died and

raised Himself from the dead (John 10:17-18), He even took from Satan the keys to hell and death. As

Christ stated to St. John in the great book of Revelation:

Rev 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have

the keys of hell and of death.

Yes, He conquered the world. He conquered His heavenly enemies. He conquered Satan’s power of

death. He even took away their keys to death and hell -- all on our behalf, so if we make the choice to

follow Him, faithfully, the enemy can’t destroy us, which is to say, they can’t take away our eternal life.

Instead, we have the victory over them. Our Lord and Savior rose to eternal life. Therefore when we die

a flesh death in the Christian faith, we too rise to eternal life, in Him.

This is why St. Paul would later write that, as part of Christ’s earthly many-membered body, we cannot be

conquered by death and hell thanks to His ongoing and eternal intercession on our behalves. As it’s

written:

Rom 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with

him also freely give us all things?

Rom 8:33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

Rom 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is

even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

Rom 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or

persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

4

Rom 8:36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep

for the slaughter.

Rom 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

Rom 8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor

powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

Rom 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from

the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

My point is this: Christ’s conquest over the world, over Satan’s power of death, as well as over the dark

forces of the heavens is part and parcel of the Gospel message. As Christians, that’s absolutely crucial for

us to understand, because while those dark forces of the heavens no longer have any authority in heaven,

they nevertheless rule over the dark (i.e., heathen, non-Christian) forces of this earth, to this very day.

That is to say, the fallen angels and their leader, Satan – stripped of heavenly authority – still rule this old

world we live in, and are the gods of the heathen and idolatrous populations of this earth. And we, as

Christ’s spiritual ground troops here on this earth are to follow our Lord’s example and take ground from

them, until He comes.

It’s already ours. Christ already did the conquering, when He rose from the dead. We just have to

believe Him. It’s called faith, beloved. Our job, as part of His many-membered body, is to move forward

in that faith and take all of the ground we can from the enemy, right up to the Second Advent.

How to Take Ground

On Behalf of the Lord

After Christ died on that cross and resurrected, He returned to His disciples and gave them a very special

message that’s documented in Mark 16:15. Here’s what He said:

Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every

creature.

You see, He admonished His faithful servants to preach the gospel message throughout the entire world,

to every person. He could have just forced everybody to be Christian at that point. After all, He won the

battle. He beat the devil and his minions. He conquered death and hell. And He openly paraded His

victory over them in the heavens.

But that’s not how our Lord operates. He wants all of God’s children to be willingly converted to Him

through the gospel message. And that conversion is supposed to be accomplished by His many-membered

body on this earth.

Just as He took ground from the enemy as part of His death and subsequent resurrection, so the entire

point of our preaching of the gospel -- the good news of the kingdom of God -- is to take both physical

and spiritual ground away from the enemy, which is the devil and his angels and their heathen forces on

this earth who worship them.

5

The gospel is the conversion tool by which we do so. We preach it. Others hear and embrace it, and in

the course of so doing, they leave the heathen or secular world behind to become members of the

Christian world. And the Christian world thereby grows as that “ground” is taken on behalf of the Lord.

In that manner, both physical ground (even entire nations in some cases) and spiritual ground (which is to

say, the hearts and minds of men) are conquered on behalf of Jesus Christ by His many-membered body --

which includes you.

Again, this is all done through the preaching of the gospel followed by the teaching of the Word of God in

its simplicity, fullness and truth. That’s called taking ground. That’s called conquest. Christ Himself left

us the example to follow when He was on this earth:

Mat 9:35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and

preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the

people.

Mat 9:36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they

fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

Mat 9:37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are

few;

Mat 9:38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his

harvest.

That’s the language of spiritual conquest, beloved. It’s called taking ground on behalf of your heavenly

Father, through your Lord and Savior by preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God and teaching the

Word of God in its simplicity, fullness and truth.

It’s the preaching of the gospel of the kingdom of God and the proper teaching of God’s Word of truth

that ultimately causes large portions of the populations within heathen areas to leave their heathenism and

idolatry behind, and come willingly into the glorious light of Jesus Christ, becoming members of the

eternal family household of God in the process.

We just need the Christian laborers – which is to say, the many-membered body of Christ -- to follow suit

with the kind of faith and fervor that Christ and his disciples displayed for our example.

As it’s further written:

Isa 54:2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations:

spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;

Isa 54:3 For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit

the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

Again, that’s the language of spiritual conquest. That’s the language of taking ground. In other words,

our job as Christians is to bring the lost souls of the nations of this world who are at animosity with our

heavenly Father back into the eternal family household of God, through Christ’s conquest and

redemption.

6

In the verses above, God likens it to stretching out a tent and lengthening the tent pegs so that more and

more people can enter into the tent. We do that by taking ground. God is working, through the office of

the Savior and through the many-membered body of that same office, to bring His wayward children back

from Satan’s grasp and into their eternal family abode with Him.

He doesn’t do that by changing His household rules to suit the heathen, and then saying “Come on in.”

He does that by changing their hearts and minds back toward Him through the preaching of the gospel

and the teaching of the Word of God.

And we’re His earthly voices who are supposed to help Him accomplish this taking of ground, as per His

own example which He left for us to follow.

So the ground that we, as Christians, are taking is from the devil and his angels, and the heathen

populations they rule over. This world is part of God’s Kingdom. But the devil still rules over it, with

God’s temporary permission. After all, in John 12:31 the Scripture calls Satan “the ruler of this world”

and in II Corinthians 4:4 the Scripture refers to the devil as “the god of this world” (or more aptly “god of

this world age”).

U der Chr st’s Feet

Our job as Christians is to do our part to help put the devil’s world under Christ’s feet, which is to say,

under Christ’s subjection. And do you know what? We’re Christ’s feet on this earth. We’re that many-

membered body of Christ that walks the earth, carrying the gospel of the kingdom of God with us, and

offering it to “whomsoever will” accept its terms of surrender to God and embrace the beautiful message

of reconciliation with God, through Jesus Christ, that it offers all men.

Again, we do this through the preaching of the gospel and the teaching of the Word of God, which puts

more and more ground under Christ’s feet. This is exactly what our heavenly Father promises will

happen, and what history demonstrates will happen, as we continue to carry forth the gospel message and

the Word of God. As it’s written:

Rom 16:19 For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf:

but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil.

Rom 16:20 And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our

Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

It’s our faithful obedience to the gospel message and to the Word of God that serves as an example to all

men and women throughout the world. And it’s through our obedient carrying forth of that gospel

message of conquest and reconciliation that our heavenly Father gradually puts the enemies of Christ

under our feet and brings them into His eternal family household. As it’s written:

Rev 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are

not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I

have loved thee.

The enemy worships before our feet because we’re kneeling in humble adoration before the feet of Christ

Jesus almighty.

7

Ultimately, Satan himself, and his minions, end up under our feet – completely conquered by Christ --

because our “feet” are part of that many-membered body of Christ, the Conqueror. As it’s written, again,

regarding God’s faithful servants on this earth:

Psa 91:13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou

trample under feet.

And again, as it’s written:

Mal 4:3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet

in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.

Christ obtained the victory for us upon His death and resurrection. As it’s written, “It is done.” And He

gave it over to us – His many-membered body – to move forward to the finish line.

Again, that’s the Biblical language of spiritual conquest. That’s the Biblical language off taking ground

from the devil, through Christ, on behalf of our heavenly Father. And the end result of that work we

perform on the Lords behalf is this:

Mat 22:44 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies

thy footstool…

In the end, our heavenly Father brings the entire world under subjection to the mercy and grace of Jesus

Christ. But He does so through the faithful actions of His many-membered body here on this earth.

It’s through our preaching of the gospel to all people of the world that our heavenly Father promises to

put His enemies under Christ’s feet. As it’s been written since the days of old:

Isa 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall

not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.

Rom 14:11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every

tongue shall confess to God.

Php 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in

earth, and things under the earth;

On behalf of God and through the power of His Christ we take ground from the enemy, both physically

and spiritually, but not by carnal (i.e., physical) warfare. After all, as it’s written, “For the weapons of

our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds” (II Corinthians

10:4).

That means we do it through the preaching of the gospel and the teaching the Word of God in its

simplicity, fullness and truth. And those who remain faithful to Christ, once converted by the gospel

message, share in that ground we’ve taken on behalf of the Lord, which is to say, they become members

of God’s eternal family household.

8

Again, the point being, our heavenly Father has promised to make it happen through our efforts on His

behalf. This is why we’re to always have the Gospel Armor on, and in place. We’re in a spiritual turf

war with the powers of darkness, which is to say, with Satan and his fallen angels who, while having lost

their heavenly authority, still rule over the heathen populations of this earth. And we therefore must be

ready at all times to fight that battle for the hearts and minds of men. As the Scripture tells us in

Ephesians 6:12-18:

Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,

against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Christ conquered these principalities and powers of Satan – which is to say, Satan and his fallen angels --

when He rose from the dead. He triumphed openly over them. But we still have to battle against them,

spiritually speaking, because they still rule the heathen nations of this old earth.

This is why you see the heathen nations of this earth so stirred up today. Satan and his fallen angels are

getting the heathen nations (who worship them as gods) ready for their arrival to this earth. And they’re

using the people of those heathen nations against the Christian forces of this earth, which is to say, against

Christ’s many-membered body.

Our job is to put that Gospel armor on and go into spiritual battle against them. In other words, we work

to bring as many of God’s wayward children as possible back to God, through the Gospel message, before

Satan and his fallen angels take them down to hell. It’s what this entire flesh age is about, beloved: a turf

war for both physical ground and more importantly, spiritual ground, which is to say, the hearts and

minds (and souls) of men.

Eph 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in

the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Eph 6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of

righteousness;

Eph 6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

That means it’s the gospel of peace that carries us forth, even as we carry that same gospel message forth

to others. We, reach out to them with the gospel message, giving them the opportunity through Christ to

repent of their false gods who have already been conquered, and to join the body of faith in Jesus Christ,

the Conqueror.

Eph 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery

darts of the wicked.

Christ won the battle. But the enemy is still fighting back. They’re kicking like mules. They’re drowning

the world in a sea of lies. They’re doing everything they can to take down as many of God’s children as

possible. And above all, they’d love to take down some of God’s elect to hell with them, if that were

possible. That’s why life’s not so easy sometimes if you’re one of God’s elect. You’re operating behind

enemy lines, in Christ. And that means you’re always a target for those who hate Christ.

But we move forward in faith, knowing that the Lord has already done the conquering, and therefore the

victory is ours. It’s one thing to say “I’ve read the back of the book and I know who wins.” It’s

9

altogether another thing to actually put on the Gospel armor and go forth into spiritual battle on a daily

basis.

Most Christians, quite frankly, just aren’t up to it. They actually think going to church once a week and

waiting on Christ’s Second Advent is the extent of their job for God. The reality is quite different. He

expects us to take the ground He’s already conquered from the enemy, and make it “holy ground” on His

behalf by bringing His wayward children back to Him through the gospel message.

Eph 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of

God:

Eph 6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto

with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

This is not talking about going to church, folks. This is talking about conducting effective spiritual

warfare. This is talking about taking ground from the devil and his heavenly and earthly minions. So if

you’re a Christian, it’s time to start acting like it. It’s time to start taking part in the taking of ground

(both physical and spiritual) on behalf of the Lord.

Again, going to church isn’t taking ground for the Lord. Don’t get me wrong. I have nothing against

church attendance. Fellowship with other like-minded Christians is important. But if that’s the extent of

your Christian walk, then you’re just a churchian, and not a Christian.

You’re what they call a nominal Christian, which means a Christian in name only. You show up on

Sunday to be seen. But not to DO. Not to accomplish anything on behalf of the Lord. You leave that to

others. I call it lazy daisy Christianity. It’s definitely not the spiritual warfare our heavenly Father wants

us to conduct on His behalf, as part of the carrying forth of the gospel to the world.

Again, the gospel message is not just “Jesus Saves.” It’s “Jesus CONQUERS and saves. Through His

many-membered body on this earth He moves across nations taking spiritual ground, and offering

amnesty through His shed blood to anyone who will willingly embrace His merciful and just and

thoroughly righteous rule.

Spiritual Warriors:

Taking and Holding Ground

The bottom line is that we’re operating in the devil’s world. As the Scripture tell us, “this world is not our

home” (Hebrews 13:14; John 15:19; John 17:14-16; I John 2:15-17). And while we’re here, we’re

“strangers and pilgrims” (I Peter 2:11-12), which means we’re operating behind enemy lines. So a true

Christian is a Christian soldier. A spiritual warrior.

And a warrior does two things: He (or she) works to take ground on behalf of the Lord. And he (or she)

works to hold the ground that’s already been taken on behalf of the Lord.

We don’t give ground back once it’s been taken. We take it in the name of Christ. Then we hold onto it

in His name. And we take more. And more. And more. Until it’s all under His feet, which means our

feet, because we’re part and parcel of His many-membered body.

10

Again, lest you think I’m talking about carnal physical warfare, let me emphasize one more time: We do

it all through the preaching of the gospel and the teaching of the Word of God.

In essence, we tell the heathen populations of this world, “Our Lord and Savior has already defeated your

little tin-horn gods and has triumphed over them in the heavens. But the good news is this: He’s got His

hand stretched out offering you amnesty. All you have to do is bow to Him and accept His generous and

loving mercy and grace.”

That’s the true Gospel message, beloved.

Historically speaking, our Christian forefathers took the gospel and travelled throughout the land of Israel,

preaching it to whoever would willingly listen. Then, as they conquered more and more ground on behalf

of the Lord through that preaching and teaching, they branched out from the land of Israel to the

surrounding heathen towns and nations, converting as many people as they could along the way, often at

great sacrifice to themselves.

St. Paul, for example, sometimes alone, and sometimes accompanied by others, traveled from Jerusalem

to Amphipolis, Antioch, Antipatris, Apollonia, Appian Way, Appii Forum, Arabia, Assos, Athens,

Attalia, Berea, Caesarea, Cenchrea, Corinth, Cyprus, Damascus, Derbe, Ephesus, Crete, Iconium, Lystra,

Malta, Miletus, Mitylene, Myra, Neapolis, Nicopolis, Cyprus, Patara, Perga, Philippi, Ptolemais, Puteoli,

Rhegium, Rome, Salamis, Seleucia, Sidon, Spain, Sicily, Tarsus, Thessalonica, Three Taverns, Troas,

Trogyllium and Tyre.

And as he journeyed to these more remote heathen cities and lands, he openly preached the gospel of

Christ and taught the Word of God. And as people heard that good news and willingly converted from

heathenism to Christianity, they formed Christian communities. And St. Paul helped them establish

churches, and gave them instructions regarding how to spread their reach by continuing to preach

throughout the neighboring lands the gospel message of reconciliation with God through Christ. Again,

that’s called taking ground. It’s spiritual conquest. And it’s what we’re here for.

Likewise, as our other Christian forefathers of old carried forth the gospel message into foreign lands,

they too converted many of the heathen and idolatrous peoples of those lands to Christianity.

Then, like St. Paul, they established churches and Christian communities, and trained the newly minted

(so to speak) Christians to run them, and to continue to carry forth the Word of God and spread the gospel

further throughout the land until the entire land, or as much of it as possible, was brought under spiritual

subjection to God the Father through Jesus Christ and His eternal grace and mercy.

The Christian religion was comparatively tiny, in fact, even miniscule by comparison to various heathen

religions of the known world at that time. But through the long, gradual spread of the gospel message

over the course of centuries, followed by stringent obedience to St. Jude’s admonition to “earnestly

contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints” (Jude 1:3), that land was taken and held

onto, on behalf of the Lord.

The Struggle

11

This spread of the Gospel and taking of ground from the heathen enemy happened gradually, of course,

and sometimes at great loss of life.

After all, our Christian forefathers were quite literally taking ground away from the heathen religions of

Satan and his fallen angels, on behalf of the Lord. And the forces of Satan always fight back. They don’t

make it easy for Christians to take ground, nor to hold that ground on Christ’s behalf afterwards.

But that’s our job, nevertheless. Remember Christ’s words: “In the world ye shall have tribulation: but

be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).

Taking ground is a struggle. And it causes trouble (i.e., tribulation). So if you’re not suffering at least a

little bit of trouble, you’re probably not taking much spiritual ground for the Lord. But never forget that

He’s already done the conquering for us, if we’ll just keep moving forward in faith in His gospel message

and Word.

As He told the Israelites of old before they moved into the Promised Land that was inhabited by the

Canaanites, “Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thine hand; there shall not a man of them

stand before thee” (Joshua 10:18). So like the Israelites of old we’re to take that ground, on His behalf,

believing His Word that He’s already done the conquering before we ever get started.

Are there ever setbacks? Sure. But in Him we are more than conquerors (Rom. 8:37). We can handle it.

We just keep moving forward, taking and holding ground wherever possible, until the day He arrives to

finish the job and put the whole world under His (and our) feet.

Historically speaking, the end result of that conquest has been the establishment of Christianity and the

gradual but inevitable establishment of what we now call the Christian nations of Europe, as well as large

Christian populations in many other countries around the world, from the darkest corners of Africa,

throughout the Asian nations and into the furthest corners of Europe and other remote regions.

Another Example

Let’s take a quick look at the following bold example of the disciples of Christ taking ground away from

the enemy in the following account from Acts chapter four, directly after St. Peter, through the power of

God, healed a man who had been crippled from birth:

Act 4:1 And as they [i.e., the apostles] spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the

temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,

Act 4:2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection

from the dead.

Once the apostles of Christ had the attention of the people through the healing that God allowed Peter to

impart to the crippled man, they began preaching Christ’s death and resurrection, and His subsequent

victory over the dark powers of the heavens.

Act 4:3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now

eventide.

12

The religious leaders of the people had the disciples arrested and tossed into jail. There’s often tribulation

when it comes to taking ground for the kingdom of God. But behold, the Lord has overcome (i.e., already

conquered) the world. We can handle a little trouble.

Act 4:4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was

about five thousand.

Five thousand new converts to Christ. That’s taking ground, beloved. That’s true spiritual conquest on

behalf of God, through the gospel message of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Act 4:5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,

Act 4:6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were

of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.

Act 4:7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name,

have ye done this?

The Jewish religious leaders demanded of the disciples of Christ, “Who gave you the right to take this

spiritual ground?”

Act 4:8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders

of Israel,

Act 4:9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he

is made whole;

Act 4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ

of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man

stand here before you whole.

Act 4:11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of

the corner.

Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given

among men, whereby we must be saved.

That’s telling ‘em! The disciples aren’t holding anything back. They’re in “taking ground” mode, and

they’re not stopping for anybody.

Essentially, the disciples said, “We preach Christ crucified and resurrected. The guy you cast aside and

killed, Jesus Christ, is the guy who made this healing happen. You despised Him. But now He’s in

complete charge. He’s now the chief cornerstone of the true temple of God. And there’s no other way

back to the Father and His eternal family household but through Him.”

Act 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were

unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been

with Jesus.

13

Peter and John had never been to seminary. But they had something even better: The Word of God. And

they believed in its power with all of their heart, mind and soul.

Act 4:14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing

against it.

Act 4:15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred

among themselves,

Act 4:16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done

by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.

Act 4:17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they

speak henceforth to no man in this name.

The false religious leaders basically said, “We can’t have these guys taking ground on behalf of the name

of Christ. Therefore, we’ll threaten them to shut up. We’ll take away their right to exercise their religious

consciences and speak their minds.” Sound familiar?

Act 4:18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of

Jesus.

They essentially passed a new law. “That Jesus stuff is offensive to us. Stop teaching it, or else.”

Act 4:19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God

to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.

Act 4:20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

And that’s how true Christians take ground, beloved. They don’t take any guff off of anybody. It’s a

rough and tumble world out there. And when you start putting the truth out in a world that’s willingly

drowning in lies, you’re going to get your hand bit once in a while. But you can handle it. As it’s written:

Php 1:27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come

and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with

one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

Php 1:28 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of

perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

Php 1:29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also

to suffer for his sake;

Php 1:30 Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

In other words, don’t let your adversaries scare you when you’re preaching the gospel, and they lash out a

bit. Expect it. But always remember that they’re the ones who need to be frightened, if they’re resistant

to that gospel message of conquest and reconciliation through repentance. They’re the ones who are going

to end up in perdition.

14

So instead of wallowing in fear, patch up your little wound and keep moving forward. You keep taking

ground on Christ’s behalf. Never forget this: In Him we are more than conquerors. And that’s because

He’s THE Conqueror.

Abr h m’s Seed

The taking of ground on behalf of our heavenly Father through Christ Jesus is, of course, in direct

fulfillment of God’s Word to Abraham.

God told Abraham that his seed (i.e., progeny) would not only inhabit and rule the land of Canaan, later to

be known as Israel, but that he would also become a “father of many nations.” That means the progeny of

Abraham would be taking ground.

God also told Abraham that over the long course of time kings would spring forth from his loins and he

would become “exceedingly fruitful.” He told Abraham that his “seed” (i.e., progeny) would eventually

become as many as the stars of the sky and the sand of the sea.

And that spread, or perhaps better stated, that growth in physical numbers of the seed of Abraham is

ultimately accomplished through Christ. You see, Jesus Christ was that seed of Israel, through Abraham,

Who would conquer the rest of the world through His many-membered body as it carries forth His gospel

message.

When one becomes a Christian he or she becomes, in God’s eyes, a child of Abraham, and is therefore

under the obligation to go forth and take more ground on behalf of the Lord. As it’s written:

Galations 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the

promise.

Take a look at the “taking ground” language of spiritual conquest in God’s promises to Abraham, Isaac

and Jacob:

Gen 17:1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and

said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect [mature].

Gen 17:2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

Gen 17:3 And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying,

Gen 17:4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many

nations.

Gen 17:5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for

a father of many nations have I made thee.

Gen 17:6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall

come out of thee.

15

Gen 17:7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their

generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee.

The Israelites of old, which is to say, the descendants of Abraham, were not to stay solely in the Middle

East land of Israel. They were to spread abroad. And in the process of spreading abroad they were to

take God’s Word to the heathen populations of the world, taking ground on behalf of our heavenly Father

and His Christ.

God would later tell Abraham’s son, Isaac, “I will multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and will

give to your offspring all these lands. And in your offspring all the nations of the earth shall be

blessed, because Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my

laws” (Genesis 26:4-5).

Of course, it’s through Christ – the ultimate seed of Abraham -- that all of the nations of the earth shall be

blessed, as ground is taken and the people become faithful Christians and family heirs to the promises of

God to Abraham.

Afterwards, God would tell Isaac’s son, Jacob, “Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee”

(Genesis 27:29). Again, that’s the language of taking ground – the language of spiritual conquest. God

would also later say to Jacob:

“And your seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west, and to the east,

and to the north, and to the south: and in you and in your seed shall all the families of the earth be

blessed. And, behold, I am with you, and will keep you in all places where ever you go, and will bring you

again into this land; for I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken to you of.” (Gen.

28:14-15)

Well, He’s not yet done, beloved. And that means He’s still with us. He’s not leaving us. We still have

more ground to take on His behalf before we go home.

Note again that this is all language of spiritual conquest. It’s all language about taking ground. After all,

at the time those great promises were given by our heavenly Father to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob the lands

of this earth were mostly populated by heathen peoples practicing heathen religions and worshiping Satan

and his fallen angels under a variety of names as their heathen gods.

But ultimately that “seed” of Abraham – Christ Jesus – would arrive, give His life on that cross at

Calvary, raise Himself from the dead, and give us the gospel message to carry forth in order to bring the

heathen populations of this world back under the roof of God’s eternal family household.

Through His shed blood on that cross, and His subsequent resurrection, He defeated the powers of

darkness that have most of the world under their grasp, and then He put it into our hands to carry that

gospel message forth, inform the people of the world that their false gods had lost the battle when Christ

rose from the dead, and ask the world to willingly surrender to Him in return for His eternal forgiveness,

mercy, grace and rich provision.

Do ’t G ve Grou d Back, Once It’s Taken

16

And that brings up another crucial point: Once spiritual ground is taken on behalf of the Lord, we don’t

give it back up to the enemy. As St. Jude would later instruct in his epistle, we’re to “earnestly contend

for the faith” (Jude 1:3). We’re to stand firmly and decisively against any who would try to usurp or

otherwise derail that faith, anywhere on the face of this earth.

Once the Christian faith conquers ground, we’re not supposed to give it back up to the devil and his

minions, nor to their flesh heathen surrogates on this earth. Spiritually speaking, we’re to fight to hold on

to the ground we’ve taken on the Lord’s behalf. As it’s further written:

1Ti 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and

hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Again, thanks to Jesus Christ, the devil and his minions have already been defeated. Their power of death

is gone. Although we don’t yet see that defeat in full, here on this earth, nevertheless, “It is done.” But

we have to move forward to the point where “It is done” in order to see it finally and completely fulfilled.

And that means we have to get through the end of this flesh earth age, faithfully taking and holding

ground for Christ along the way, until His second advent.

That’s what faith means, beloved: Although we don’t yet see the world under His feet, we believe He

conquered it, and that we are “more than conquerors through Him that loved us.” So we move forward in

conquest, using his gospel message and His Word of Truth as the conversion tools that brings nations and

peoples under His subjection, and under His eternal mercy and grace and manifold goodness and

provision.

Unfortunately, this kind of “conquest language” scares all too many Christians. In fact, because of the

political correctness that’s so rampant in these final days of this flesh earth age, it scares most Christians.

They’ve lost their spiritual backbones, because their faith is not firmly rooted in Christ, the Conqueror.

Instead, it’s rooted in churchianity and its empty religious traditions. And churchianity is all about

comfort. It’s about staying out of the line of fire. It’s about bake sales and Christmas plays and choirs

and Easter egg hunts on the church lawn.

True Christians, on the other hand, move forward taking and holding ground wherever possible, all of the

way to the end. They know that taking ground IS the Gospel. Christ conquered the powers of heaven and

earth. And our job is to go forth and say, “Surrender, repent, and willingly come to Him, and He’ll grant

you amnesty, mercy and grace forever!”

It’s unfortunate that all too many Christians today think Christianity is simply about going to church,

holding hands, singing songs, and putting on fundraisers and bake sales.

But these are hardly the things of true faith in terms of the carrying forth of the gospel message to the lost

souls of this dark world. And they’re hardly the things of true faith in terms of the worldwide spiritual

conquest that the gospel message is specifically designed to bring about.

Satan, Too, Takes Ground

17

At this point in time, the enemy, though defeated by Christ on the day of His resurrection, is nevertheless

trying to take down as many of God’s children as they can, in the short period of time they have allotted

before Christ’s second advent takes place.

The fate of God’s heavenly enemies is already sealed. But like cornered rats, they’re trying to fight their

way out. How do they do this? They do it through the very same method Christians are supposed to be

using.

Just as the Christian population – the many-membered body of Christ -- is supposed to be Christ’s

spiritual ground force on this earth moving forward with the Gospel message and taking ground in the

process, in like manner the heathen populations of this world are Satan’s spiritual ground forces. And

likewise, they work day and night to take ground on behalf of Satan and his fallen angels. They do so by

conducting spiritual warfare against Christianity.

And frankly, the enemy is doing a pretty good job of it, today, largely because modern Christians are so

lax in their understanding of what the preaching of the gospel is supposed to accomplish – which is to say,

the taking and holding of ground on behalf of the Lord God.

You see, Satan and his followers work incessantly to take ground. Unlike Christians, who have grown

spiritually fat and lazy (Deuteronomy 32:15), and have decided that attending church once a week is what

constitutes “Christianity,” the enemy never stops working to take ground.

The enemy labors day and night to take ground away from us, which is to say, away from the Lord and

His many-membered body. And sometimes, much to our shame as Christians, it seems like they’re taking

more ground than we are in the final days of this flesh earth age.

Infiltration as a Means of Taking Ground

You’ve no doubt studied Christ’s parable of the tares from Matthew chapter 13. If you’re anything like

me, you’ve probably studied it 100 times.

But we’re going to study it again here, very briefly, but through a slightly different lens than usual in

order to discover a very important truth that might otherwise be easily overlooked. Let’s take a quick

look. As it’s written:

Mat 13:24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened

unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

Mat 13:25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his

way.

Mat 13:26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares

also.

Mat 13:27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow

good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

Mat 13:28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou

then that we go and gather them up?

18

Mat 13:29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with

them.

Mat 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the

reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the

wheat into my barn.

Now we know from Christ’s explanation of the meaning of the above parable (which explanation was

given to the apostles in Matthew 13:36-43), that the “field” in the above parable represents the world.

The “good seed” represent the children of the kingdom which were planted here by our heavenly Father.

And the “tares” – which are the evil seed sown into the field – represent the children of the wicked one,

which is to say, they represent the devil’s very own children on this earth, who, as Christ tells us in

Revelation 2:9 and 3:9, love to masquerade as Jews.

So what’s the point? It’s this: The devil takes ground through infiltration. He sees the field (i.e., world)

that God “planted” with His children. And the devil moves into that very same field and defiles it by

planting his own children who work to do his bidding by drawing God’s children away from God’s

Christian doctrine.

You see, when Satan planted his seed in mother Eve’s womb in the garden of Eden, he did so in order to

infiltrate God’s family on this earth. The tares, who are the children of the devil, and who we know to be

the descendants of the murderer Cain (known today as the Kenites), have infiltrated us largely by

pretending to be our big brother Judah and by casting themselves as “God’s chosen people” the Jews.

It is these very same tares (i.e., descendants of Cain, masquerading as Jews) who have infiltrated the four

hidden dynasties of politics, economics, education and religion, and have risen to high positions of policy-

making power within those dynasties. And they’ve managed in the process to cement the erroneous idea

into the minds of Christians that if you so much as dare question a “Jewish”-inspired policy or action,

you’re inviting God’s curse onto yourself.

Of course, we know from the Scripture that this is a demonstrably false teaching, and that in reality, it’s

those who act against Christ and His many-membered body who are put under God’s curse. (See my

previous Bible study, People of the Curse for full Biblical documentation that it’s the false Jews who are

under God’s curse, and not Christians who merely question their policies and actions.)

Yes, the false Jews – the children of the devil himself -- have infiltrated us from the very beginning.

Infiltration and deception have proven to be their modus operandi, which is to say, their method of

operation.

But because their physical numbers are so small – the false Jews constitute less than one-half percent of

the world’s population -- they’ve never been able to physically conquer us. Instead, they’ve focused

almost exclusively on infiltrating us under false pretences, and then seizing control of key policy-making

positions within those four hidden dynasties of politics, economics, education and religion – dynasties

we’re supposed to control, not them.

But through their deceptive infiltration, they’ve become our Supreme Court justices…our economic

policy makers…the controllers of our major banks, our stock markets, our bond markets…the dictators of

our educational policies…the purveyors of our media…the molders of our religious traditions…the

19

builders of our cities…the re-shapers of our culture. Yes, they even dictate our immigration policies,

which we’ll take a look at, next.

The Islamic Golem: How the False Jews

Turn Christian Holy Ground into Heathen Ground

Now that the false Jews, through infiltration, have gained almost universal and iron-fisted control over the

key policy-making positions of the western Christian nations, they’re taking things one step further. And

it’s a real doozy.

They’re using their control over the four hidden dynasties to bring in, through mass immigration (think

infiltration), a heathen and thoroughly idolatrous population that adheres to a religion that’s completely

antagonistic to our own, which is to say, the Muslim peoples and their religion of Islam.

Of course, the reason for this new form of infiltration through mass immigration is to take holy ground

away from Christians, and turn it into heathen ground. Just as the “field” in the parable of the tares was

defiled and polluted with the bad seed, so today our “field” (which is to say, the holy ground of the

Christian nations), is being defiled and polluted with a heathen and idolatrous seed that seeks to destroy

our Christian way of life and rob us of our Christian heritage.

The mass Muslim immigration/invasion of the western Christian nations is part and parcel of Satan’s

ongoing turf war against our heavenly Father and His Christ. Only we, the Lord’s Christian ground

troops, aren’t really grasping the full extent of what’s happening to us. We’re not seeing the mass

Muslim migration into the western Christian nations through the lens of infiltration which leads to

spiritual conquest – their conquest of our Christian holy ground.

As I’ve documented in excruciating detail in my previous study, The Hidden Jewish Hand Behind the

Mass Muslim Invasion of the Western Christian Nations, the Islamic invasion of the west is being

instituted, directed and overseen by the tares, which is to say, by the false Jews who have infiltrated our

key policy-making positions, and have thus controlled the immigration policies of the western Christian

nations since the 1940’s. (See the above-linked study for full documentation.)

Our hidden “Jewish” masters are using Islam as their “golem” against Christianity. In case you don’t

know it, a “golem” is a large and imposing creature from ancient Jewish religious folklore that’s said to

be made from clay (i.e., like man, himself, is made from). But the golem is brought to life by the false

Jews and controlled through occult religious practices so it can be used to defeat the enemies of the false

Jews, which is to say, Christianity.

Mary Shelley’s book, Frankenstein, and her Frankenstein monster, were based largely on the Jewish

religious concept of the golem. In that story, various dead body parts (a body is nothing more than clay, in

the end, after all) were used to create the monster.

If you’re having a hard time grasping the concept, think of it metaphorically: Through the mass

immigration of Muslims into the western Christian nations, a heathen many-membered body is being

assembled by the false Jews who control our immigration policies. And that heathen many-membered

body is being assembled by the false Jews to help weaken and ultimately defeat the Christian many-

membered body, which is to say, Christianity. The Muslims have the numbers. So the false Jews are

simply infiltrating them into western Christendom and using them to defeat us.

20

Islam is the “golem” being used by the false Jews, against Christianity. It’s their Frankenstein monster,

unleashed upon us to take Christian ground from us, and deliver that ground into the hands of Satan’s

forces on this earth.

If you think the “swarming” of the Islamic world, which began back in 2010 during the so-called “Arab

Spring” was by accident, you haven’t been watching very carefully. Let your mind roam back in time to

the point of the initial swarming of the Islamic nations throughout the middle east, and then gradually

bring your mind forward to where we are today with the Islamic world pouring into the western Christian

nations by the millions upon millions and demanding we change our ways to suit them.

Then you’ll understand that this was all brought about purposefully and decisively to achieve a very

specific goal: the taking of ground away from Christians. It’s spiritual and physical conquest by the

children of the devil, using a surrogate called Islam which they’ve infiltrated into our own western

Christian nations in droves using the tool of mass immigration.

All of this is to say, the false Jews, who despise Christ and Christianity, know they can never defeat us

physically, due to their small numbers. So in order to weaken, dissipate, counteract and ultimately

destroy our Christian heritage, the false Jews are bringing in a heathen many-membered body – a golem --

to do against us what they cannot do themselves.

They’re bringing in their Islamic golem as a means of defeating us from within by taking holy ground

away from us and making Christians the minority voice in their own lands, subject to the whims of the

heathen.

One Big Turf War

As you can see, we’re involved today in a “turf war” of truly gargantuan proportions. Just as Christians

are supposed to be taking ground through the preaching of the gospel and the teaching of the Word of

God, so the enemy is taking ground too, through his chief method of operation, which is infiltration.

Just as that old serpent planted his seed in mother Eve’s womb in order to infiltrate God’s very family on

this earth with his children the Kenites (i.e., descendants of Cain), so today does that old serpent plant

within our many-membered body the Islamic golem. And that golem’s job is to turn Christian holy

ground into heathen and idolatrous ground, on behalf of Satan.

The closer we get to the end of this flesh earth age, the more vigorously and furiously the enemy, in all of

its many facets, work to oppose our efforts to take ground on behalf of Christ. Just as vehemently, they

work to take back the ground they’ve lost since Christ first gave Christians the great commission to go

forth and preach the gospel to every living creature.

So if you don’t understand the Biblical concept of taking and holding ground, nor the concept that we’re

in a turf war of gargantuan proportions with the enemies of Christ who are also working to take and hold

ground for their false gods, then very little of what’s happening in the world today is going to make sense

to you.

But if you do understand the concept of taking ground, and the spiritual warfare encompassed in that

taking, then it all suddenly begins to make sense.

21

You’ll understand why the mass Muslim invasion

of the western Christian nations is taking place, and

why the Muslim call to prayer three times a day is

rapidly overtaking the tolling of church bells in

Christian nations throughout Europe. That is

Satan’s ground forces taking holy ground –

Christian ground -- away from Christians. As an

example, today, at the time of this writing, the

Christian city of London, England actually has a

hard-core Muslim mayor. The #1 baby name for

newborns in England is now “Muhammad,”

replacing the Christian names like Jack, John, James, William and Oliver due to the high number of

Muslim births now taking place throughout England. Muslims now march in front of Buckingham

Palace in London, demanding Queen Elizabeth either convert to Islam, or step down from the throne.

And they swear openly and publicly that they won’t stop until they’ve turned Buckingham Palace into

an Islamic mosque.

You’ll understand why, in France, for example, where Muslim

immigration has been extremely high for the past decade, six

out of every 10 French people say they no longer feel safe

“anywhere in their country.” You’ll understand why, in

southern France, there are now more mosques than churches.

You’ll understand why news outlets like ABC routinely

feature propaganda videos portraying Islam as more or less

“just like Christianity, but misunderstood.” You’ll understand

why Islam is now the world’s fastest growing religion with an

annual growth rate of 235% compared to Christianity’s 47%.

You’ll understand why the false Jews, including the main “Muslim immigration” organizations run by

false Jews like George Soros, are now threatening to sue President Trump for not letting enough

Muslims into this country.

You’ll understand why a leading Catholic University in Pennsylvania has dropped its long-time

Christian “Crusaders” mascot in an empty attempt to foster a “spirit of inclusiveness” with Muslims

now invading this country through mass immigration. University leaders claim this new change of

mascots is a response to “the spirit of peace, harmony, and inclusiveness that Franciscans aspire to and

that Pope Francis upholds.” In other words, they’re getting rid of their long-time Christian Crusader

mascot in order to cater to the whims of the growing Islamic population in the United States.

You’ll understand that while Christian church attendance is rapidly

falling, with as few as 20% of Christians now attending church,

attendance at Muslim mosques is soaring by a whopping 77%. This is

largely because prominent Islamic clerics in these mosques are preaching

that the Islamic “Mahdi” (the prophesied redeemer of Islam) is coming

to this earth along with his helpers to establish and rule over a worldwide

Islamic Caliphate. And when he arrives this “Mahdi” expects to find

Christianity in complete subjection to Islam. This Muslim teaching is, in turn, catapulting religious

conquest fervor even among so-called “moderate” Islamics. Thus mosque attendance is now soaring.

22

You’ll understand why thousands of Muslims occupied

the Capitol Hill grounds in front of our nation’s capitol,

on the 25th

of September 2009 (i.e., the Feast of

Tabernacles) in order to pray to Allah, repeatedly

making their declaration “There is no god but Allah,” as

a means of nullifying the Christian belief that Jesus

Christ is God incarnate and that through Him God

tabernacled with man in human flesh.

You’ll understand why the militant Muslim leader of Turkey recently threatened to open the

floodgates of Islamic immigration into Europe, from Turkey, and told the millions of Muslims now

residing throughout Europe to “Have five children and not three. You are Europe’s future.” He

added, “This is the best answer to the rudeness shown to you, the enmity, and the wrongs.” In other

words, for taking in millions of Muslim immigrants, and feeding and housing them, we must now be

taken over by Muslims through their far higher birth rates as well as through their continuing mass

migration into the west.

You’ll understand why London’s Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan, recently told Londoners that the threat

of terror attacks are simply “part and parcel of living in a big city.”

You’ll understand why investigative journalist Leo Hohmann recently wrote, in his 2017 book titled

Stealth Invasion: Muslim Conquest Through Immigration and Resettlement Jihad, “…the Muslim

Brotherhood has a well-defined strategy for conquering America, not necessarily with violent jihadist

attacks (although we should expect those to increase) but through more subtle means collectively

called ‘civilization jihad.’ According to the Brotherhood's own documents seized by the FBI,

‘civilization jihad’ involves infiltrating and conquering Western democracies from within. Very

simply, civilization jihad calls for changing a nation by changing its people and its values gradually,

over time. Americans have been kept largely in the dark about the radical plans to permanently

transform their nation.”

You’ll understand why President Trump’s promises to protect Americans from the Muslim invasion

of the western Christian nations have turned out to be largely empty, not because the man is insincere,

but because an entrenched federal bureaucracy, combined with changes in our immigration laws made

back in the 1940’s, 1960’s and again in the 1980’s allow the United Nations, and not American

officials, to determine which “refugees” are sent into our cities. As a result, those selected to be sent

to this country are increasingly coming from hotbeds of Sunni radicalism like Syria, Iraq, and Somalia

while a growing population of persecuted Arab Christians are left behind in those war-torn countries.

You’ll also understand why perversions like so-called “gay marriage” were recently legalized

in numerous Christian nations around the world, including here in the U.S. – this, in spite of God’s

clear, concise and unequivocal admonitions against it as a blatant disruption of, and disregard for, His

natural order. Again, this is another example of Satan’s wicked ground forces taking ground away

from Christians and putting it into the hands of the heathen.

You’ll also understand why Christian businessmen and women are now being targeted and forced to

violate their consciences (and God’s Word in the process), by having to bake “gay wedding” cakes, or

23

rent their business establishments for homosexual parties or “gay marriage” ceremonies and more.

That too is the action of Satan’s ground forces taking ground away from Christians.

You’ll understand why television and movies are now so full of violent and deviant characters, and

why, for example, even Disney recently released a movie for children that featured an intimate

homosexual kiss between two males. Yes, the enemy is working to “take ground” from Christians

even by corrupting the minds of our children, both in the entertainment field, in the schools, and much

more.

You’ll understand why political correctness is now so rampant in schools, businesses, public and

private organizations, and even churches, and how the devil takes ground from Christians by tricking

them into believing they must be namby-pamby “politically correct” in all things or they’ll be

considered societal outcasts, “bitter clingers” and “deplorables.”

You’ll understand why the teaching of Christianity is outlawed in the public school system, with the

untenable myths of secular humanism, Darwinism and “evolution” replacing God Word of truth in the

minds of little children. That, too, is Satan’s ground forces taking ground away from Christians

through their infiltration of and control over the four hidden dynasties of politics, economics,

education and religion.

You’ll understand why Christian churches have been duped into teaching empty religious traditions

and silly children’s stories in place of teaching what God’s Word actually says about topics like what

really happened in the Garden of Eden, or what happened in Genesis chapter 6 when the fallen angels

came to this earth and mated with the daughters of Adam, or what the true difference is between

Easter and Passover, or even the fact that the enemy’s god is not our God, and their rock is not our

Rock. The switch from teaching God’s Word to teaching empty religious traditions is part and parcel

of Satan’s ground forces taking ground away from Christians.

You’ll understand why “Planned Parenthood” and similar organizations are getting away with

murdering millions of babies right in the womb, as a means of reducing the Christian population

growth and replacing God’s Word regarding the sanctity of life with the secular concept that humans

are just cattle and that human life is merely a “choice” as mundane as whether or not to have

chocolate ice cream after dinner. That, too, is a blatant example of Satan’s ground forces taking

ground away from Christians.

I could list a hundred more ways Christians are losing ground to the enemy, rather than taking ground and

holding the line against the enemy by refusing to give up that taken ground. But the above, I think, makes

enough of a point. Nevertheless, there’s one more important point to remember:

It’s Not Our Grou d We’re Los g,

It’s the Lord’s Ground Being Lost on Our Watch

What’s critical to grasp is this: This nation and the other western Christian nations as well, are not “our”

ground. They’re the Lord’s ground. We’ve simply been given the job of holding onto this ground after

our forefathers took it on His behalf through the preaching of the gospel and the teaching of His Word,

and made it “holy ground” to the Lord. Wherever Christian feet tread on the face of this earth, and take

ground from the devil and his heathen worshippers, the body of Christ Himself is treading and taking

ground. And the body of Christ needs to be prepared (and determined) to hold that ground.

24

And because that preaching and teaching of our Christian forefathers

was often violently opposed by the heathen forces of Satan on this earth,

that ground was taken at great cost. Much blood was shed because the

devil and his disciples did not want to give up ground to the many-

membered body of the Lord. Therefore, over the long course of history,

many faithful Christians have died in the process of taking spiritual

ground on behalf of the Lord.

But now, to the horrific shame of Christians worldwide, much of that

ground is being given up, gradually and incrementally, because

Christians no longer understand the concept of taking ground and

holding onto it for the Lord.

Christians have largely become pansies. Weak and pathetic. “Well, I’ll pray over it,” they say. Pray,

yes! But then, DO something. Don’t just “play” Christian. Take action. Actually be a Christian. Don’t

just call yourself one.

“Well, how should I act?” Act like you know you’re in spiritual warfare. Act like you understand that the

heathen and idolatrous forces of this old earth are trying to take what has already been conquered by

Christians on behalf of God and give it to the devil, and that you’re one of His front-line troops who are

supposed to be working to hold that ground and take even more ground on behalf of the Lord.

In other words, start acting like a Christian with some real backbone, and stand up for what’s right.

Every time someone tries to take ground that’s already been conquered on behalf of Christ Jesus, step in

and do you part. Hold the line, in Christ. Don’t remain silent. Quit giving in to political correctness.

Quit hiding behind excuses. Quit expecting Christianity to be comfortable. It’s not. There’s tribulation

involved. Do your part. Or quit calling yourself a Christian.

There’s No I -Between

Years ago, an old gentleman who was a master Mason heard me teaching a friend (his

nephew) from the Bible. He saw that I was a spiritual individual, and took me aside

and drew a picture of a wheel. His wheel had a hub in the center, and spokes leading

from the outer rim of the wheel to the hub.

The old gentleman told me that in Masonic doctrine the outer rim of the wheel

represents the world. The spokes represent the different religions of the world. And

the hub at the center of the wheel, where all of the spokes connected, represents God. “You see,” he said

to me, while pointing to the spokes that led from the outer rim of the wheel to the central hub, “all

religions lead to God.”

That’s pretty much the Universalist religion of the world today. It’s the humanistic version of religion.

Basically, the world wants you to believe that if there’s a God, sooner or later every religion will get you

to Him. Therefore, no religion is more important than another. All religions are equally valid and viable.

And by extension (and this is key) no single religion really matters more than any other. So if you’re

bitterly clinging to your own Christian religion, and refusing to open your arms and mind to the religious

Christian converts to Islam are growing. We either keep our Christian culture or we lose it. We’ve just got to have the faith and courage to refuse to give up Christian ground to false religions.

25

beliefs of others and embrace them as equals, then you’re a misfit. You’re not part of the Universalist

credo that leads to God.

Unfortunately for the world, that Universalist credo is a great big crock.

There’s no religion on the face of the earth that’s equal to Christianity. Nor is there any religion on the

face of the earth that’s even remotely compatible with Christianity. Not. A. Single. One. There’s no

interim religious path that leads to God. There’s only Christianity. And all else is fake and will never

exist again once Christ gets here.

And that’s why we’re to have “no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove

them” (Ephesians 5:11). The false religions of this old world are not here for us to make nice with.

They’re not here for us to compromise with. They’re here for us to conquer on behalf of Christ, through

the preaching of the gospel message and the teaching of the Word of God in its simplicity, fullness and

truth.

Your religious and political leaders might tell you that there’s something called “interfaith dialogue” or

even “interfaith cooperation.” I’ve even seen religious leaders talking about the supposed need to focus

on the “common ground” between religions, rather than the differences.

But I’m afraid it’s the difference that makes the day, beloved. We have Christ. And they refuse Him.

And that’s the difference that destroys all arguments on behalf of the vain idea that all religions are

equally valid. As it’s written:

2Jn 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He

that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

2Jn 1:10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house,

neither bid him God speed:

2Jn 1:11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

In other words, if you don’t have Christ, you don’t have anything. And we as Christians are not supposed

to have anything to do with their false doctrines. Nothing. We stick with the doctrine of Christ. And that

doctrine doesn’t say to make nice with heathen religions. It says to conquer them through the preaching of

the gospel and the teaching of the Word of God.

The difference between Christianity (i.e., which is, by definition, the way of Christ) and all other religions

is that Christianity is the eternal universal reality while the others are all just temporary fleshly play-

acting. They’re based on the vain imaginations of men who are trying to mold new “realities” through

which they hope they can escape the coming judgment, or at least convince others that this is possible.

In reality, they’re just dupes of the devil who want to take you to hell by getting you to lose focus on what

your real job as a Christian on this earth truly is. As your Lord Himself has clearly stated:

Luk 11:23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.

This is talking about gathering and scattering, meaning taking ground or losing ground. There are only

two sides in this turf war. If you’re not on the Lord’s side, you’re counted by Him as being against Him.

26

And if you’re not gathering (think “taking ground”) with Him, you’re scattering (think, losing ground to

the enemy).

Luke 11:23 means Christianity is the only thing that matters. Again, Christianity is the eternal universal

reality. You’re either on Christ’s team, or by free will choice, you’re not. And if you’re not, you’re

blowing in the wind. You haven’t got a snowball’s chance in hell. There are no alternatives to

Christianity. Not one. There are no equally valid religions. There’s nothing else in the eternal realm but

Christianity, which again, by definition, is the way of Christ.

Heaven isn’t divided up into little camps, with the Muslim camp over there, and the Jewish camp over

here, and the Hindu camp over yonder and the Christian camp off to the side somewhere. In heaven,

which is to say, in the eternity, there’s the way of Christ. Period. There’s nothing else than the way of

Christ. And the way of Christ is life. Anything other than the way of Christ is death, and therefore it

cannot and will not exist in the eternity.

Let’s take a much deeper look at some of the key words in Luke 11:23 above – words which were spoken

by our Lord and Savior Himself, to His disciples -- and see what we might learn on this crucial issue:

The word “with” used by Christ in this verse (i.e., “he that is not with Me” and “he that gathereth not with

Me”) is translated from the Greek word meta (Strong’s G-3326), which means “associated with” and

strongly denotes accompaniment and participation.

G3326

Μ

meta

met-ah'

A primary preposition (often used adverbially); properly denoting accompaniment;…Often used

in composition, in substantially the same relations of participation or proximity, and transfer or

sequence.

In other words, if you’re not in direct spiritual accompaniment with Christ, and if you’re not acting in

participation with Him in taking ground from the enemy on behalf of our heavenly Father, and holding

that ground, you’re instead scattering, which is to say, you’re completely wasting your short time here on

this earth. You’re losing ground.

In other words, you’re wasting your very breath. You’re wasting your very opportunity for eternal life –

because there’s nothing else but joining in with the body of Christ and doing the gospel work that can

bring you eternal life. You have to be an accompanier and a participant in the taking of ground (i.e., “he

that gathereth”) and the subsequent holding of that ground. That’s what being “with” Christ means.

The word “against” used in Luke 11:23 above by our Lord and Savior is translated from the Greek word

kata (Strong’s G-2596), which generally means “down,” but in this particular usage means “alone” and

“apart.” And it means that in the starkest of senses you can imagine.

G2596

27

Κ

kata

kat-ah'

A primary particle; (preposition) down (in place or time), in varied relations (according to the case

[genitive, dative or accusative] with which it is joined): - about, according as (to), after, against,

(when they were) X alone, among, and, X apart… frequently denotes opposition, distribution or

intensity.

In other words, as used in this verse the word kata denotes the result of being in opposition to Christ. If

you’re not with Christ, in full accompaniment and participation with His program to retake every inch of

ground from the devil on behalf of your heavenly Father, then you’re considered by your heavenly Father

to be in opposition to Christ, which means you’re on your own. You’re all alone. You’re apart from

Him.

Instead of being set apart to God through Christ for His specific purposes of gathering His wayward

children back into His eternal family household through the preaching of the gospel of the kingdom of

God, you’re considered to be set apart from Christ, which means from life itself. You’re a dead man

walking if you’re not working in accompaniment and participation with Christ.

That’s what being part of the many-membered body is all about. As it’s written in I Corinthians 12:12-

14: “For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many,

are one body: so also is Christ. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews

or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. For the body is

not one member, but many.”

So if you’re not working in that many-membered body in accompaniment and participation with Christ in

taking ground for our heavenly Father, you’re pretty much down and out. You’re just not going to make

it, because you’re wasting your time attending to things that have nothing to do with the eternal universal

reality of Christianity, which is to say, the way of Christ, which is the only real way there ever has been

or ever will be.

Our Lord said, “I am the way, the truth and the life.” Period. There are no “ifs,” “ands,” “buts” or

“exceptions” to the rule. There are no other ways. So what are we doing allowing those empty “other

ways” (i.e., spokes of the Masonic wheel) to rise up above us and even rule over us within our own midst?

Let’s keep looking at Luke 11:23 for a minute: The word “gathereth” used by Christ in Luke 11:23 above

is translated from the Greek word sunago (G-4863), which means “to lead together,” “to collect” and even

“to convene.” It denotes assembling or bringing together as one.

G4863

Σ

su g

soon-ag'-o

28

From G4862 and G71; to lead together, that is, collect or convene; specifically to entertain

(hospitably): - + accompany, assemble (selves, together), bestow, come together, gather

(selves together, up, together), lead into, resort, take in.

Indeed, the Greek root for sunago is the word sun (pronounced soon) which means “companionship” or

“togetherness” and denotes completeness, as in a many-membered body working together to accomplish a

specific purpose. Do you get it?

In fact, the Greek word sunago is the very root of the modern word synagogue, meaning the formation of

an assemblage of persons, or a church. It’s not referring to the Jewish synagogue we know of today,

which is the source of all religious play-acting and spiritual infiltration. It’s the true synagogue, or

assemblage, which is to say, the many-membered body of Jesus Christ acting in complete harmony and

synchronicity toward completing the goal of taking every inch of ground away from Satan and restoring

every lost or wayward soul possible back into the eternal family household of God.

Finally, the word “scattereth” used by Christ in Luke 11:23 above is translated from the Greek word

skorpizo (Strong’s G-4650), which means, in this sense, “to dissipate,” or “to waste.”

G4650

Σ

skor

skor-pid'-zo

Apparently from the same as G4651 (through the idea of penetrating); to dissipate, that is,

(figuratively) put to flight, waste, be liberal: - disperse abroad, scatter (abroad).

You’re completely wasting your time, and for that matter, God’s time, too, if you’re not accompanying

Christ and participating with Him in His goal of “gathering,” which is to say, taking every last inch of

ground away from the devil, on behalf of our heavenly Father. If you’re not gathering (i.e., gaining

ground by adding to the body of Christ) then you’re scattering (i.e., losing ground by failing to add to the

body of Christ).

As a side note, as you can see in the definition above the word skorpizo can also mean “to be liberal,”

which once again, in this case means wasteful. It means you’re losing ground rather than taking ground,

beloved. You’re wasting your time as a Christian. And it’s going to cost you dearly when Christ finally

arrives and much to your dismay takes one look at you and says, “I never knew you” (Mt. 7:23).

The point of this deeper look into Luke 11:23 is this: Christ came to this earth to accomplish a very

specific purpose. He gave His very life for that purpose. And if you’re not working to accomplish that

purpose with Him (i.e., sunago), you’re essentially on the proverbial road to nowhere. You’re blowing in

the wind. And your very life hangs in the balance.

There is no “other way” than the way of Christ (i.e., Christianity) and the way of Christ is the way of

spiritual conquest of the enemy and his forces. The way of Christ is the way of taking ground from the

enemy and returning lost souls to the Lord -- all through the preaching of the gospel message and the

teaching of the Word of God in its simplicity, fullness and truth.

29

Christian Nation:

Holy Ground

I’ll take this line of thought one step further, if you don’t mind a brief digression:

This nation, America, was founded as a Christian nation. Therefore, it’s considered by our heavenly

Father to be holy ground. And our heavenly Father treads this holy ground in the persona, so to speak, of

His many-membered body in Christ.

And because the mindset of the vast majority of this nation’s founding fathers and those who supported

them and who helped build this nation were in broad general agreement with the Christian notion of

taking ground through the gospel message, and because they were acting more or less as a single body,

meaning as a sunago, or a congregation working toward a singular goal in companionship with Christ,

this nation became the greatest Christian nation on the face of the earth.

Our forefathers came from Old World Europe where the corrupt governments and religious institutions

felt they had the right to tell people how to believe in Christ and how to work on behalf of Christ. For the

most part, this arrangement usually benefitted only the corrupt government and the corrupt state church,

and not the cause of Christ nor His followers.

In fact, in many cases, it impeded the work of Christ. Indeed, the Word of God wasn’t even allowed into

the hands of the people. For long periods of time, Bibles weren’t allowed to be published in the common

tongue of the people. Christians were told to “go to your priest” if they wanted to know what God’s

Word said on a specific subject. So the average common Christian quite literally couldn’t do the work of

Christ, because they didn’t have the Word of God to tell them what to do.

So our founding fathers, in their wisdom and love for the Lord, enshrined into the law of this land,

America, the concept that the government here would never be able to establish a state religion and tell

you how to worship. In other words, there would be no government-enforced monopolistic religion.

People were to be free to serve Christ as the Bible said to, rather than as some monopolistic state religion

acting in place of Christ said to.

But that grand notion of our largely Christian founding fathers was later distorted, corrupted and re-

interpreted to mean that any religion on the face of the earth is on the same par as the Christian religion,

and that all religions have equal validity, equal rights and equal protection under the law of the land. It’s

that Masonic wheel and spokes and hub again, that I told you about earlier in this study.

This of course flies directly in the face of what Christ taught: “I am the way, the truth and the life” (John

14:6) and “He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth” (Luke

11:23).

We essentially allowed the heathen religions – which is to say, the religious play-acting populations of the

world – to be equated with Christianity, which is the only eternal reality. Our intentions were good:

Equal rights for all men was the watchword of the day. But it’s now been distorted to mean that

Christians must bow and submit to the whims and wants of all other religions and be careful not to

trample on their delicate feelings with the true gospel message of God – the message of conquest and

reconciliation through Christ.

30

This corruption and misinterpretation of the original intent of our founding fathers has, over the long

course of time, directly led to the situation we face today in which the holy ground of America – once the

greatest Christian nation on the face of the earth – is being trampled upon in conquest by every religion

and “ism” (i.e., humanism, socialism, communism, etc.) known to man.

This includes members of religions and “isms” who feel its incumbent upon themselves to conquer our

holy Christian ground from within – through infiltration -- by using our generous Constitutionally-

guaranteed freedoms against us.

This is precisely why, for example, if a Muslim bakery in America turns down a request from a customer

to bake a wedding cake for a so-called “gay marriage,” it’s considered to be just fine, because they have

the right to practice their religion without violating their religious conscience.

But if that same “gay” customer goes to a Christian bakery and gets turned down for their request to bake

a wedding cake for their homosexual “marriage,” the Christian bakery gets sued, is vilified nationwide by

the news media as being “homophobic,” and ultimately gets found to be in violation of the “human

rights” or “civil rights” of the homosexual couple.

In other words, we’re being conquered from within, thanks to the way our laws guaranteeing freedom of

religion have been distorted, corrupted and re-interpreted, combined with new laws guaranteeing “civil

rights” for everything from homosexuals to so-called “transgendered” people, to people who “identify” as

being “genderless.”

Indeed, an Oregon judge ruled in March of this year (2017) that a 27-year old male could now be legally

designated as “agender,” meaning as having no gender at all, simply because he “identifies” with no

gender. Yes, it’s getting that bad. And it’s only going to get worse unless Christians start standing up and

taking ground (and holding that ground) from those who would make a mockery of our heavenly Father’s

Word, and seek to destroy our heavenly Father’s natural order.

Why Christianity is Now Failing

To sum up, Christianity is failing for two reasons:

1.) Christians no longer recognize their responsibility to take ground on behalf of the Lord, and

hold it on His behalf until His second advent. They’re no longer gathering new ground in

accompaniment and participation with Him, but instead, are scattering, which is to say, losing

ground.

That’s because most Christians have taken the softer, easier way out: Spiritual conquest through the

preaching of the gospel and the teaching of the Word of God in fullness and truth have been replaced by

playing church, following empty religious traditions, holding bake sales, and celebrating holidays with

plays and church sing-alongs.

2.) Christians don’t recognize how the enemy takes ground, largely through infiltration, including

mass immigration followed by agitation (including terrorism) from within. In short, Christians

don’t grasp that the enemy has taken the mantle of spiritual conquest away from them, and are

using it against them.

31

In short, Christians no longer understand the true Gospel message. They’ve been duped into believing

that clicking “like” on “Jesus Saves” memes on Facebook, combined with their once-a-week church

attendance and participating in occasional church events like “Easter” celebrations or church bake sales,

fulfills their obligation to be “more than conquerors” through THE Conqueror, Jesus Christ.

Out of fear and spiritual laziness most Christians have rejected the conquest language of the gospel

message, and of the Bible itself, and have replaced it with empty religious tradition – essentially the

theology of surrender.

Meanwhile, the heathen idolaters have embraced the conquest language of their own religions – such as

the Islamic hijrah, which literally means “conquest through immigration” -- and have put it into

individual and group action on behalf of their gods, which are the devil and his fallen angels.

While Christians have largely abandoned the idea of fulfilling the role of the Elijah ministry in “making

straight the crooked highways” in preparation for the return of our Lord and Savior, the heathen have not.

They too have their version of the Elijah ministry, and they know their job is to infiltrate and overwhelm

Christianity and essentially beat it into submission before the arrival of their dark lord and his fallen

angels.

Unlike Christianity, which is supposed to be moving forward in spiritual conquest in the form of a united

many-membered body, the heathen idolaters are fulfilling that obligation on behalf of the devil and his

angels.

They’re acting as a united body to bring Christianity under siege and submission (which is what the term

“Islam” actually means). And they’re doing so in anticipation of the soon arrival of their unholy god and

his unholy host, who are coming to this earth to usher in the greatest deception since Satan in his role as

the serpent in the Garden of Eden.

Former Congresswoman Michelle Bachman gets it. As she stated in a recent interview with Jan Markell

on the radio program “Understanding the Times,” the movement of Muslims into Europe and the United

States is a “planned invasion” for the “specific purpose of destroying Western Christendom.”

Bachman stated:

“The people that are coming in are not Christians, generally speaking, very, very few Christians

that are being moved. It is primarily Muslims and only young men, 80% tend to be young men

going into Europe right now, for instance, but they also come from the most radicalized

Islamists…

This clearly is an invasion…This is a planned invasion, not only in Europe but also in the United

States, I believe for the specific purpose of destroying Western Christendom, because that has

been the strength of the world, economically, but also the strength of the world in terms of

leadership, the nations that are known as Western Christendom.

We see this mass migration, this people movement, which is a historic people movement of

Muslims from Islamic nations tending to be the most radicalized nations -- from those nations into

nations that are known as Western Christendom.”

32

What’s more, Congressman Steve King recently created an uproar when he tweeted, “We can’t restore

our civilization with somebody else’s babies.”

He later explained, “You’ve got to keep your birth rate up,” and “You need to teach your children your

values. In doing so, you can grow your population, you can strengthen your culture, and you can

strengthen your way of life.”

Both former Congresswoman Michelle Bachman and Congressman Steve King understand that you can’t

expect American Christian culture to survive if you flood the country with people who don’t respect its

Christian values and traditions, don’t speak its language, and don’t have any interest or intention of

abiding by its generally accepted code of conduct.

On March 22, 2017 another Muslim terror attack took place in London. British citizens were mowed

down by a car driven by Islamic terrorists who then leapt out and began bludgeoning people, including a

policeman who was bludgeoned to death. Here, in part, is what journalist Katie Hopkins of the British

Daily Mail wrote:

“No anger for me this time. No rage like I’ve felt before. No desperate urge to get out there and

scream at the idiots who refused to see this coming.

Not even a nod for the glib idiots who say this will not defeat us, that we will never be broken, that

cowardice and terror will not get the better of Britain.

Because, as loyal as I am, as patriotic as I am, as much as my whole younger life was about

joining the British military and fighting for my country — I fear we are broken.

Not because of this ghoulish spectacle outside our own Parliament. Not because of the lives

rammed apart on the pavement, even as they thought about what was for tea. Or what train home

they might make.

But because this is us now.

This is our country now.

This is what we have become.

To this, we have been reduced.

Because all the while those forgiving fools in Brussels stood with their stupid hands raised in

hearts to the sky, another mischief was in the making. More death was in the pipeline.

As the last life-blood of a police officer ran out across the cobblestone, the attacker was being

stretchered away in an attempt to save his life.

London is a city so desperate to be seen as tolerant, no news of the injured was released. No clue

about who was safe or not.

Liberals convince themselves multiculturalism works because we all die together, too.

33

An entire city of monkeys: see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Blind. Deaf. And dumb.

Immersed in a seething pit of hatred, hidden in pockets of communities plagued by old animosities

and ancient strife.

These people may have left their lands. But they have brought every tension, every conflict, every

bit of fight here with them.

The Afghans hate the Somalias who loathe the Eritreans. As it was before, it is now. London is a

city of ghettos behind a thin veneer of civility kept polished by a Muslim mayor whose greatest

validation is his father's old job.

Son-of-a-bus-driver Sadiq.

I see him now, penning a missive about how London is a beautiful and tolerant city, how we are

united by shared values and understanding, and how we will not be cowed by terror.

Sure enough, there he was on the evening news, saying exactly that, just now. Fool.

Even as mothers text to check their children are safe. Including my own, worrying about me as I

sit overlooking the scene, feeling fearful of this place where monsters lurk and steal lives away in

an instant. For nothing.

I would ask Sadiq to stop talking. Empty words. Meanwhile, banning pictures of women in bikinis

on the Underground. How does that help?

Please, no hashtag, no vigil, no tea lights. I am begging you not to light up Parliament in the

colours of the Union.

Because we are not united. We are wrenched asunder.

The patriots of the rest of England versus the liberals in this city.

The endless tolerance to those who harm us, (while the Home Office tries to shift the focus of

public fear to white terror) — versus the millions like me who face the truth, with worried families

and hopeless hearts, who feel the country sinking.

We are taken under the cold water by this heavy right foot in the south, a city of lead, so

desperately wedded to the multicultural illusion that it can only fight those who love the country

the most, blame those who are most proud to be British, and shout racist at the 52%.

This place is just like Sweden. Terrified of admitting the truth about the threat we face, about the

horrors committed by the migrants we failed to deter — because to admit that we are sinking, and

fast, would be to admit that everything the liberals believe is wrong.

That multiculturalism has not worked. That it is one big fat failure and one big fat lie.

34

President Erdogan of Turkey said there is a war being waged between the crescent and the

cross. But he is wrong. Because the cross is not strong. We are down on bended knee, a

doormat to be trodden on, a joke only funny to those that wish us harm.

The war is between London and the rest of the country. Between the liberals and the right-minded.

Between those who think it is more important to tip-toe around the cultures of those who choose to

join us, rather than defend our own culture.

And how many more attacks must pass before we acknowledge these are no longer the acts of

‘extremists’? That there is no safe badge with which to hold these people at arm’s length, in the

way the liberals casually use the term 'far-right' for anyone who has National pride.

These events are no longer extreme. They are commonplace. Every day occurrences.

These people are no longer extremists. They are simply more devout. More true to their beliefs.

Beliefs which will be supported endlessly across our state broadcaster for the next few months

until we buy into the narrative that one religion is not to blame.

That in fact we should blame Brexit supporters. For believing in a Britain. As it was before.

Anything but the truth.

This is why there is no anger from me this time, no rage. No nod for those who pretend we will not

be cowed, even as they rush home to text their mum they are safe. No surprise that the city of

which I was so proud is now punctured by fear, and demarcated even more formally by places we

cannot tread; there were always parts in which a white woman could not safely walk.

Now I feel only sadness, overwhelming sadness.

I will walk over the river tonight and look to the Thames, to the Union flag lowered at half mast,

and the Parliament below, and I will wonder, just how much longer we can go on like this.”

And that, in a nutshell, is a perfect example of the sad state of western Christianity, today, folks. This

journalist hit the nail squarely on the head. Christian culture throughout Europe (and increasingly

throughout the United States) is nothing but a shell of its old self. Unwilling to take ground on behalf of

the Lord. Unwilling to hold ground on behalf of the Lord. All too willing to give it up to the devil and

his earthly minions in the flesh, and make sad, self-serving excuses for why they’ve done nothing to stop

it.

And it’s all because we’ve forgotten our obligation to carry forth the true gospel message, which is a

message of conquest and reconciliation. This message:

“Our God, Jesus Christ, conquered yours. And that’s that. But He’s generously offering you

amnesty. If you’ll repent of your sinful and idolatrous ways, bow to Him, accept Him as your

Father and the source of your very life, and embrace His open arms, He’ll accept you back into

His eternal family household where you’ll reap His mercy, grace, truth and manifold blessings.

And if you won’t, then get the hell out of here because hell is where you’re going.”

35

Are you too ashamed to preach that message? I hope not, because understanding and embracing that

obligation and destiny is what gives you purpose in life as a Christian.

As we learned earlier in this study, your job – your very purpose on this earth – is working in

accompaniment and participation with Christ, through the actions of His many-membered body as He

gathers God’s wayward children back into God’s eternal family household and takes every last inch of

ground away from the devil in the process.

Don’t you want to be part of that?

Embracing that Christian purpose is what prevents you from ending up like the British journalist above,

sadly lamenting the death of the western Christian culture without a clue as to how to put a stop to it.

There’s only one way to stop it. And that’s to raise the banner of Christ high into the air, and carry the

gospel forth, faithfully, boldly and decisively and without fear or favor to anyone. As it’s written:

1Jn 5:4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that

overcometh the world, even our faith.

Our faith in Christ the Conqueror, and in His gospel message of conquest and reconciliation, demonstrates

that we’re born of God and not the devil. But as Christ stated in Luke 18:8 before He parted this earth on

our behalves: “When the son of man returneth, will he find faith on the earth?”

And now you know why He made that statement, beloved. Because you’re either working with Him, or

against Him. And if you’re against Him, then you’re on the devil’s side. And that means He won’t

consider you “born of God.” He won’t consider you one of His own, spiritually speaking.

As Christians we tend to forget that the great commission is STILL in effect. We’ve never been given

orders from God to cease working to carry the gospel message to “every part of the world” and preach it

to “every living creature.”

At no point in history has God ever said, “Kick back. Relax, friend. Have a cigar. And just substitute

going to church once a week, singing Psalms and holding bake sales in place of carrying forth the gospel

message and teaching My Word.”

Neg t ve P rt of F ther’s Word:

Is That Really an Excuse?

I have Bible students constantly writing to tell me, “Steve, it’s just the negative part of our Father’s Word

coming to pass. There’s nothing we can do about it. It’s all part of God’s plan.”

Uhh. Sorry. But no. You’re wrong. The negative part of our Father’s Plan was also coming to pass

during the entirety of the prophet Jeremiah’s 23 year preaching and teaching ministry. Idolatry was

rampant. The Canaanite heathen religions were infiltrating Jerusalem to the point that Ishtar, the so-called

Queen of the Heavens was being worshipped right in the streets of Jerusalem and all of the way into the

king’s chambers.

The king of Babylon drew closer and closer. But Jeremiah didn’t sit back, put his feet up and say “It’s

just the negative part of God’s Word coming to pass. So now I can quit preaching, teaching and

36

prophesying, and just kick back for awhile and have a nice cold Pina Colada. After all, there’s nothing I

can do about it.”

Instead, Jeremiah doubled down on his efforts on behalf of our heavenly Father to keep the Word of God

in front of the eyes and ears of the people of Judah and Jerusalem and that small remnant of Israelites that

still dwelt among Judah.

Likewise, when Christ was teaching in the streets and synagogues of Jerusalem and the surrounding cities,

the negative part of our Father’s Plan was even then also in full force. The enemy was closing in around

him. Satan’s own children were plotting to murder Him.

But Christ didn’t say, “Well, it’s just the negative part of my Father’s plan coming to pass, so I think I’ll

take a vacation to one of the Greek isles and have some fun before my time comes.” Nope. He too

doubled down on His teaching. He too increased His efforts to put the gospel message and the Word of

God in front of the faces of the people.

Why? Because as the prophet Ezekiel explained through God’s Holy Spirit, it’s the watchman’s job to

sound the alarm loudest when the darkness is approaching. Even if God’s in charge of that unfolding

darkness, it’s still our job to sound the warning and sound it loudly and clearly. As it’s written:

Eze 33:2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the

sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their

watchman:

Eze 33:3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the

people;

Eze 33:4 Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword

come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.

Eze 33:5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him.

But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.

Eze 33:6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people

be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his

iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand.

Eze 33:7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore

thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.

As you can see, just because the negative part of God’s plan is coming to pass does not negate our

responsibility to sound the alarm, which is to say, to preach the gospel message of repentance and

salvation (and Christ’s victory over the forces of darkness upon His resurrection) and teach the Word of

God regarding the modus operandi of the enemy, and the need for the children of God to repent and get

things back on the right track, both in their personal lives, and on a national level.

Indeed, if the watchman (i.e., God’s faithful servants) see the enemy flood rushing in and fail to sound the

warning, the blood of the people he failed to warn is on his hands. He has to answer for their spiritual

deaths. He has to answer for the fact that the enemy conquered them.

37

But if he sees the enemy flood coming, and sounds the alarm, then it’s up to the people to do something

about it. And if they don’t respond to the repeated sound of the alarm, then their spiritual slaughter is on

their own heads, and not the watchman’s.

As it’s written in the great book of Joel regarding the false Jew-controlled Islamic locust army we now

have pouring in among us:

Joel 2:1 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the

inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

Like Ezekiel, the prophet Joel emphasizes that we’re to blow that trumpet of warning. We’re not just to

sit back on our duffs and say, “Well, I’m doing enough. I’m going to church. I’m listening to taped feel-

good sermons in my car on the way to work to get pumped up spiritually for the day ahead. What more

could God possibly want from me? After all, this is just the negative part of His Plan coming to pass.”

Instead of being pansies, we’re to tell the people what God’s Word says about taking ground from the

enemy, and our profound responsibility to work to hold that ground once it’s been taken. And when the

enemy comes in like a flood, as the heathen Muslim masses are doing today, it’s our job to sound that

alarm and call the people to action – especially to turning back to our heavenly Father and doing things

His way.

And if we do so, we have God’s precious promises to stand firmly upon and claim:

Joel 2:12-13 Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and

with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: And rend your heart, and not your garments,

and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great

kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.

If you want God on your side, you need to be on His side, first and foremost. And that means you need to

be doing His work. And that work is the preaching of the gospel message, and the teaching of His Word,

line-by-line, verse-by-verse and chapter-by-chapter.

Nothing has changed. There’s been no modification in the battle plans. There have been no new orders

issued. No voice from on high has sounded, saying, “Take a break, Christians. If you got ‘em, smoke

‘em. Put your feet up. Relax. Have a beer and watch some Dancing with the Stars. After all, it’s just the

negative part of My Plan coming to pass.”

If you’re not a gifted Bible teacher, then you can at least plant seeds of truth, which is to say, you can

bring up mention of these Bible truths to others. Pass this study out to others, if you’ve got the guts. But

do something.

You’ve got to be found acting in accompaniment and participation with your heavenly Father, through

the many-membered body of Christ, or you’re just not going to make it into the first cut, beloved, when

your Lord and Savior arrives. You’ll end up having to go through the millennium teaching period with

the heathen and idolaters. You’ve got to spread the word, and work to hold the holy ground that’s already

been taken on behalf of Christ, in the face of the encroaching enemy.

38

If you’re too timid to plant seeds of truth in the midst of the encroaching enemy, then at the very least

throw some financial support behind a good broadcasting ministry like The Shepherd’s Chapel that knows

how to stand up and teach the truth in the face of the encroaching enemy.

The enemy works to take ground through their control of the four hidden dynasties, which is to say,

politics, economics, education and religion, and through the subsequent infiltration they’re able to bring

about. Christians are supposed to be using God’s Word, boldly, to wrestle those dynasties away from the

control of the enemy – think of the “four carpenters” of Zechariah 1:18-21 -- and use those dynasties to

take back ground on behalf of Christ Jesus. But we’re sadly falling short. We’re not even trying to stop

the devil’s earthly forces – whether it be Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, communism, socialism or what-have-

you – from taking Christian ground from us.

Pretty soon, our old adversary the devil and his fallen angels, who are worshipped by the heathen

populations of this world under a variety of names, will arrive to this earth in what will be the greatest

attempt to take Christian ground ever witnessed since the first world age. They’ll even try for God’s

Throne. As it’s written regarding the intent of Satan’s heart:

Isa 14:13 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:

Isa 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

But our heavenly Father’s response is short and to the point (as should be ours in the face of an

encroaching enemy):

Isa 14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

Isa 14:16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the

man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms;

Isa 14:17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not

the house of his prisoners?

We’re to tell them they’ve already lost the battle and are well on their way to hell, if they don’t turn to the

Lord, willingly accepting His amnesty, repent of their false gods, and join the family household of God in

Christ.

And when we’ve finished doing our part to take and hold ground on behalf of the Lord, then the ultimate

taking of ground will occur, when our heavenly Father, through His Christ, sets things right once and for

all through the complete and utter defeat of the enemy forces on the great day of judgment. As it’s

written:

Isa 14:21 Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise,

nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities.

Isa 14:22 For I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the

name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD.

39

Short of sincere repentance and acceptance of the gospel message, the enemies of the Lord and their little

flesh minions and surrogates on this earth are going down. And as it’s written to God’s faithful servants

in the great book of Revelation, that old harlot church system who sells out to the devil and his angels by

abandoning the great commission in return for a life of comfort and ease will be “rewarded” (which is to

say, recompensed, or paid back) by God’s faithful servants with double payback. Here are your Lord’s

specific instructions to you, in this regard:

Rev 18:6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her

works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

Rev 18:7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and

sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no

sorrow.

Rev 18:8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she

shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

Yes, the sell outs will be “rewarded” (i.e., recompensed) with double punishment for their treachery

against the gospel message. The plagues of God will be poured out upon them. And the false church that

gave up on the great commission of Jesus Christ will be no more. It will go up in flames. As it’s further

written in the great book of Jeremiah:

Jer 16:18 And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have

defiled my land, they have filled mine inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and

abominable things.

They tried to take ground away from the Lord, beloved, and turn that holy ground into heathen ground.

And that’s a big no-no. That’s what we’re to stand against. Christians don’t give ground. We take

ground. Period.

What’s more, at that time, Christ’s servants who hold the line and refuse to back down from preaching the

gospel message and teaching the Word of God will be given double honor for their faithful service in

carrying out the gospel mission. As it’s written:

1Ti 5:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who

labour in the word and doctrine.

1Ti 5:18 For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The

labourer is worthy of his reward.

You remember the laborer, right? Christ called for more laborers to work in the field, which is to say, to

take ground on this old earth from the devil and his minions, and their heathen flesh surrogates, and turn it

into Christian ground.

The moral of the story is this: If you want to be considered worthy by the Lord, you must be a laborer in

the Word and doctrine of the Lord, which is salvation through Jesus Christ the Conqueror. Don’t be a

lazy daisy Christian who refuses to act in accompaniment and participation with the Lord as He works to

gather (i.e., take spiritual ground) from the devil and his minions.

40

And make no mistake about it, beloved. Only the battle-tested overcomers will received this double

honor in the Father’s kingdom. As it’s written of that final great battle for turf between God’s faithful

servants and the devil himself:

Rev 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony;

and they loved not their lives unto the death.

And so it is, beloved. Those who love the Lord don’t abandon their posts in the middle of the battle.

They don’t say, “Well, it’s just the negative part of our Father’s Plan coming together, and there’s nothing

I can do.” They don’t go to sleep on the job. Instead, they hold the line. They don’t give up ground.

They continue to take ground on the Lord’s behalf.

Holding up that great plumb-line of truth – our Father’s Word and His gospel message of Conquest and

reconciliation through repentance – is our most important tool for taking and holding ground. We hold

the line and take ground via the carrying forth of the gospel of Christ and the teaching of God’s Word as

it’s written.

In the end, uncountable multitudes will be saved, as Father takes back – largely through the work of His

elect -- what has rightfully been His all along. As it’s written in Revelation chapter 7:

Rev 7:9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all

nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb,

clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

These are the gentiles, beloved, who are saved through your hard work on God’s behalf in delivering that

gospel message, along with teaching the Word of God.

God, of course, does the saving, by touching the hearts and minds of these people with His Holy Spirit as

you deliver that beautiful message of conquest and reconciliation through repentance, to them.

Rev 7:10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne,

and unto the Lamb.

They thank God from the bottoms of their hearts for this salvation, this amnesty provided by the shed

blood of Jesus Christ on that cross at Calvary. It will be a beautiful day, indeed, beloved.

Rev 7:11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four

beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

Rev 7:12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and

power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.

Father is deserving of this worship and honor, because exactly as His Word is written, so it has come to

pass at that point. You can count on Him, beloved.

Rev 7:13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in

white robes? and whence came they?

41

Rev 7:14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came

out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the

Lamb.

These are the people of the heathen nations of the world who heard the gospel message being preached

and the Word of God being taught by God’s faithful servants, even during the darkest days of the great

tribulation of the antichrist, and as a result came out of the darkness of Satanic deception and stepped

gladly into the glorious light of Jesus Christ, the Lord.

Rev 7:15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple:

and He that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.

Rev 7:16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them,

nor any heat.

Rev 7:17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them

unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

That’s our Father’s gospel message, in a nutshell. He’s already conquered the enemy. We’re to let them

know that He’s holding out His hand to them, waiting for them to repent and come to him in sincerity and

truth. And then they’ll be made part of His eternal family household, and reap the manifold blessings

thereof.

Human conquerors enslave and victimize those they’ve conquered. Our heavenly Father intends to set

them free in Christ’s mercy, if they’ll have it. Preach the gospel message. Let the whole world know the

truth.

1Jn 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in

you, than he that is in the world.

You have the victory in the Lord. Never forget that. Never fear. Never turn back. Keep taking ground.

Don’t give up ground. You know the end of the book. Now start acting like you believe it by doing the

work that the great commission calls for.

Muslim Demographics: a Quick Primer

To sustain a culture, the fertility rate (i.e., birth rate) must be at least 2.11 children for every family. Otherwise, fewer children are being born than parents dying.

The average fertility rate of the European Union countries: 1.38 children per European family

The average fertility rate of the U.S. and Canada: 1.6 children per U.S. and Canadian family.

Fertility rate of Muslims in the European Union: 8.1 per Muslim family

Pew Research now admits Muslims will grow more than twice as fast as the overall world population between 2010 and 2050 and, in the second half of this century, will likely surpass Christians as the world’s largest religious group.

There are now more Muslim mosques than Christian churches in southern France, and 30% of all children age 20 and younger in southern France are born into Islamic families.

In the last 30 years, the Muslim population of Great Britain rose from 82,000 to 2.5 million – a 30-fold increase due to both the population explosion among Muslims in Britain, and continued Muslim immigration. Muslims now march in the streets of London calling on the Queen to “convert to Islam or leave the country” and claiming they will turn Buckingham Palace (and the U.S. White House) into mosques.

There are now over 1,000 Muslim mosques throughout England, many of them former Christian churches. “Mohammad” is now the #1 most given baby name in England. London now has a Muslim mayor.

In the Netherlands, 50% of all newborns are Muslim.

In Russia, there are now 23 million Muslims – that’s one out of every five Russians – and nearly 40% of the Russian army is now Muslim (think Ezekiel 38).

In Belgium, 25% of the population and 50% of all newborn babies are Muslim.

One-third of all European children will be born to Muslim families by 2025, just 17 years away.

The German Federal Statistics Office recently stated, “The fall in the German population can no longer be stopped. Its downward spiral is no longer reversible…It will be a Muslim state by the year 2050.

Before his death in 2011, Libya’s Muslim leader Muammar Gaddafi stated, “There are signs Allah will grant victory to Islam in Europe without swords, without guns, without conquest. We don’t need terrorists. We don’t need homicide bombers. The 50+ million Muslims in Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades.”

There are now between 46 and 52 million Muslims in Europe, depending upon which source you listen to, a number that’s expected to double over the next two decades.

In 1970, there were 100,000 Muslims in America. According to the Pew Research Center, by 2015 there were 3.3 million Muslims living in the U.S. But this contradicts published information from 2007 in which the Bureau of International Information Programs of the U.S. Department of State said there were already between 2 million and 7 million Muslims living in the U.S. at that time, a full decade ago. The American Muslim Council claims there are currently 5 million Muslims living in the U.S. Turns out, there is no official government count of the U.S. Muslim population, because the U.S. Census Bureau “does not ask questions about religion.” You can bet the numbers are higher than we’re being told.

4 Infiltration Stages of the Locust Army

We know from chapter two of great book of Joel that the four stages of the locust army are the gnawer stage, the swarmer stage, the devourer stage and the consumer stage. Here’s how it works in relation to the infiltration of God’s Christian people and their land… 1.) Gnawer Stage = Kenite infiltration: The long-term “gnawing” away of the wealth, power, might and manifold freedoms (including religious freedom) of the western Christian nations by the false Jews of Revelation 2:9 and 3:9 (which is to say, the Kenites) – all accomplished through their infiltration of God’s Christian people and their secret control of the four hidden dynasties of politics, economics, education and religion; this stage has been going on for many decades and continues unabated to this day. 2.) Swarmer Stage = Islamic infiltration: The sudden and unexpected “swarming” of the Islamic multitudes in the final days of this flesh earth age (i.e., swarming stage = conquest through mass migration) which is happening right now under the complete control of the Kenite false Jews through their iron-fisted control of the four hidden dynasties (see documentation in The Hidden Jewish Hand Behind the Muslim Invasion of the Western Christian Nations at www.mediafire.com/HaveYeNotRead). 3.) Devourer Stage = Infiltration of the Fallen Angels: Just as the fallen angels infiltrated the family of Adam and Eve in Genesis chapter 6, ushering in what in essence was a false “kingdom wedding” between Satan’s angels and the daughters of Adam, so too will the coming third and final influx of the fallen angels to this earth with their leader Satan (Revelation 12:9) result in much the same situation. As it’s written in Genesis chapter 6:5-7, so it will come to pass once again: “And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.” At their arrival, the fallen angels will begin setting things up for Satan's coronation as "Messiah" through implementation of that “7-year” "covenant" of Daniel 9:27 (which we know from Revelation 9:5-11 has been shortened to five months), and immediate preparation for the false kingdom wedding in which all of the people of the world will be asked to participate. It is in this stage (the first two-and-a-half months of the five month period of Revelation 9:5-11) that Satan and his fallen ones will in essence spiritually “devour” all nations (Rev. 17:15-17) through their deceptive claim to the world that the “messiah” is here to take a wife, and that all nations and all peoples need to either join in with this spiritual marriage or be left out of the “kingdom of God.” Of course, the “wife” that will be taken by the devil and his fallen angels will be the people who constitute the great harlot one-world religion of Revelation 17:4-6, which will be composed of most of the world’s people at that time, with the notable exception of God’s elect who will not bow a knee to Satan nor agree to participate in his false kingdom wedding. 4.) Consumer stage = Infiltration of the false Christ: Last but certainly not least, Satan will stand up in the holy place just about halfway through that 7-year (i.e., five month) "covenant" period, proclaiming himself to be "god," and will begin his false kingdom wedding which will spiritually “consume” all nations and all peoples, with the notable exception of God’s elect. As it’s written in 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4, “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” And as it’s again written in Mark 13:14-19, “But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house: And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment. But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. For in those days shall be affliction [i.e., persecution], such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.” That is the fourth and final stage of the four stages of the locust army. And it takes place during the second two-and-one-half months of the five-month period Satan and his fallen angels will have on this earth. It’s essentially the great tribulation of Satan, also known Scripturally as the “time of Jacob’s trouble” (which our heavenly Father promises, in Jeremiah 39:7-24, to deliver Jacob – true Israel – out of).
