Old-Thinker News | July 7, 2012

A powerful new video from the Infowars team is providing deep, insightful and profound guidance toward real solutions for mankind. As we reach a critical crossraods in history it is essential that as a society we have foundations for development. This goes beyond standard economic, political and governmental issues. A firm moral and spiritual foundation is essential, without which humanity is lost in the wind.
The video touches on foundational truths that every human being on earth recognizes. Natural law is written on all of our hearts, something that has been recognized since mankind’s beginnings. To rebel against it is to cut off the branch that you are sitting on. Human societies have rebelled against this law throughout history, and death is always the end result.
Old-Thinker News presented similar solutions in a June 7th article The Artificial Habitat for Mankind: This Isn’t the End of the Road:
What will we do about this? How can mankind defend against these tools of deception and domestication? There are a vast number of potential solutions to choose from. I will share with you what I personally believe to be effective.
First, realize that there is a raging battle being fought right now between freedom and tyranny. Too many people have been sold the idea that their lives are boring and the world dull. The hardcore reality of this battle – and the realization that there is breathtaking beauty everywhere – is enough to snap semi-conscious people out of their artificial habitat induced trance.
Noted scholar and writer C.S. Lewis eloquently stated,
“…war creates no absolutely new situation: it simply aggravates the permanent human situation so that we can no longer ignore it. Human life has always been lived on the edge of a precipice. Human culture has always has always had to exist under the shadow of something infinitely more important than itself. If men had postponed the search for knowledge and beauty until they were secure, the search would never have begun. We are mistaken when we compare war with “normal life.” Life has never been normal.
The artificial habitat that we live in has seduced us into a sate of complacency. We aren’t exercising the strength that we have as human beings. Our ancestors strove for knowledge and beauty amidst great hardship. Now we are convinced that we are at the end of the road; We don’t need to strive for anything else. We don’t have a reason to rebel. It’s time to break the chains.
We can reach for a higher standard and take the open hand that God is extending to us. Scientific control over humanity is not full proof. In fact, once individuals filled with the spirit of God overcome the spell of wickedness and deception, they are empowered beyond anything that they were before. I say to the New World Order; Keep doing what you’re doing. You are building the army of your own destruction. The weapons that you forge against us will fail.
Its a good article, I have not seen the video yet. I have to take it one step further to the truth though. The battle is about freedom and tyranny but more to the point good and evil.
And if you don’t specifically state that the truth of The Bible is the only way to live and that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation you are missing the underlining truth and are just on the outskirts.
War is necessary sometimes as I have to go by The Bible. It is the only way to eradicate evil and eventually good will prevail and Jesus will return. This is truth whether anyone wants to admit it or not in the mainstream culture.
well do you all have a 24/7 house of prayer Hebrews 10:24-25 doing Colossians 3:16-17; to become 1Peter 2:4-5,+Ephesians 4:15-16 knowing Hebrews 11:8-10; this is the important ? will you all be able to stand unashamed at His appearing ? 5 foolish ,5 wise who’s inside preparing while they wait outside its not the Bridegroom He;s to come ?
I’m so glad Mr. Jones was able to preach this without constant recourse to the Bible. I’m a pagan on the side of people and the universe and opposed to the evil controllers… so if you think that Bible is the only way to live and I’m a fool not to accept Jesus Christ, go say so to your fellows in church. Most people aren’t Christian, and are never going to be. Sniffing about our moral inferiority won’t make you any friends (or allies in the fight.)
I agree, Ethan, that most people are not Christians, but I view this as a negative. You probably would not (as a pagan), but moral inferiority (to use your worlds) always immediately precede the collapse and destruction of a society. A free society cannot-CANNOT-exist without strong moral standards (objective morality). It is a (if not THE) necessary ingredient of a free people, otherwise you usher in a tyranny and government that has to take care and provide for the people because they are addicted to vice and self-destruction. No morals=no freedom. Peace.
I kind of hiccuped when I heard him say at around the 3:45 mark that “so far in our history, technology has been nuetral.” I beg to differ. With in 10 years of the Wright brothers’ first flight at Kittyhawk, NC do humans turn the device into a weapon of war. It is almost inevitable that whatever invention or innovation we make, it is used also for violent means. The Ancients called this state Original Sin…we have all but denied such a state to our detriment.
You have it right. Humanists and transhumanists all think that they can overcome the carnal nature of humanity through the application of their scientific and technological innovations. However, numerous progressive radio and talk show hosts all speak of humanity needing strong moral standards in order to survive. The question is, who’s? Are these standards to be derived from experiences gone through over time, or is there one particular set of standards that should be adhered to no matter the experiences one goes through? Human moral standards are based on human understanding. Gods moral standards are not based on human understanding, and are set in stone, literally. The vast majority of humanity prefers to be independent of those standards, or commandments, seeking to establish their own moral standards. One can see where that has led humanity in the past, and now, in the present. Moral standards based on the “human way of thinking”, or human reason, are faulty, and are the reason why humanity is in the situation they’re in now. Rejection of the Laws of the Most High God have led civilizations to collapse in the past, just as this civilization is collapsing today, yet a majority of humanity remains rebellious right up to the end, just as the prophets of the Most High God foretold.
John Locke said reason was the gift by which we can discern natural law. It is not hard for someone of average intelligence to discern right and wrong; Natural Law. Our Founding Fathers recognized this too, when they said, “We hold these truths to be self-evident.”
As such, you dont have to be religious to understand and discern Natural Law. What religion provides is INCENTIVE to abide within these laws, as well as a supportive group to utilize the power of peer pressure.
Ultimately though, these methods fall short of the ideal. They are both founded on Coercive Force, ‘Follow these rules or we will shun you and you will go to Hell.’ It is a part of the Natural Law that even if you actually gain compliance through use of force, you will inevitably lose compliance once the force is removed.
The failure occurs when people do not live up to these self-evident truths, and to avoid the guilt and responsibility for their poor choices, they instead exacerbate the problem by talking themselves into thinking this is ok. Religion can help with this, because it is a lot harder to talk an entire congregation into thinking what you did is ok, but it can be done (witness the changes in the Catholic Church over their existance).
Ultimately, the answer is for each person to individually transcend their current state and work towards the Ideal. This person accepts not only Natural Law, but also their responsibility to live up to it because THEY CHOOSE TO, and not because they are forced to.
This can be done without a belief in a God. It is the very definition of Free Will.
The Prince of this world, Lucifer, is a major control factor over tyrannical powers, and civilizations on this earth are always falling into his machinations. God gave us truth of this predicament and a way to overcome it, but society as a whole doesn’t have victory over sin and Satan. The governments of earth succumb to power hungry, greedy,murderous tyrants. King Jesus will return in power and glory and grate wrath to destroy His enemies and set things straight!
Did I just listen to that whole video without hearing the word Love? Any discussion without this is pointless. What really lights up our electric universe is Love. The old saying that God is Love, could not be more true. It is the tie that binds us together and the gateway to mass awakening. We are Spirit in the End.We have everlasting life, deal with it.This world is about choosing between good and Evil. Guess which side is winning.~The initials on the tree with the Heart tipped me because the top ones RT happen to be mine. When I didn’t hear the word Love throughout the video, check it,
then you won’t find the real solution.
The Spirit, you are right. If nothing else we are to love one another and do unto others as we would have done unto us. Striving to be good is not easy in an evil world. It is a test for everyone.
