The News Beats

In establishing a new precursor to partnerships with the Antichrist, his workers of iniquity continue to pave that way for his arrival and worship. 

By an executive order, President Obama has surpassed the existing faith-based intrusions into religious freedom, which were baited by access to federal funds, and inaugurated an office to be empowered to make incursions into every neighborhood household in the land.  As of February 5, 2009, the new White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships (FBNP) began efforts at taking control of all religious organizations, and dictating what religious tenets are legal, and which are to be outlawed.  The goal is for all churches to eventually be nationalized, and placed under the provisional license of the federal government.  This sweeping federal oversight is being ushered in under pretense averting an economic catastrophe.

Partnerships: In Community 

These new faith-based and neighborhood partnerships are only a precursor to the formation of a new state religion, with world power, that Satan will use to his advantage for first half the tribulation period.  He desires to be worshiped, and even said to Jesus: “If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine” (Luk 4:7).  Eventually he will, as Antichrist, have his hour; “And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” (Rev 13:8).  The religious leaders who are working to forge these partnerships are preparing the way.  They represent a select group within the world’s population who are left behind when God turns his attention on refining Israel, and judging ungodliness.  They will be dealt with separately and more severely during that period, and upon the Lord’s return to earth:

And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints, To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. (Jud 1:14-15; emphasis added)

These ungodly are destined to congregate in a coming world church that is described in the book of Revelation, chapter seventeen, as Mystery Babylon.  While the true Church will not see its final formation, this foreshadowing will continue in its increase as an enveloping darkness until the end of the age.  Consequently, the Church will see escalating persecution as it is marginalized out of the congealing state religion.  Under the original faith-based program the capture was congregation by congregation, wherein many dissenters could go unmolested.  By adding neighborhoods to the church-government partnerships accountability reaches down to the household level.  The implications for families and individuals are hard to over emphasize.

When the newly fashioned church bells toll in neighborhoods everywhere it will mean “we need all hands on deck, ” as Obama puts it,^10[3] so that they may bow before the new potentate, and swear their allegiance to the new green religion of “saving our planet”.^11[3]   Those not willing to renounce Christ, not willing to have their faith based in everyone else’s faith in order to do the real work of this new ministry, are going to be labeled heretics.  Anyone not standing at the curb saluting the passing PBS van and listening to their instructions for community service over the loudspeaker will be dealt with swiftly.  In the not too distant future, the van will be followed by trailer on which will be mounted a guillotine.^12[6]

While no one knows the day or the hour when the White House Office of FBNP will be absorbed by the United Nations, or other world governing body, to act as enforcer of the coming world religion for Antichrist, fangs are showing over at the Justice Department.

In a speech to Justice Department employees decrying unresolved racial issues, new Attorney General Eric Holder lambasted Americans as a “nation of cowards,”^13[7] and demeaned them for having private lives and personal pursuits outside the work place.  Reportedly, “Holder said the workplace is largely integrated but Americans still self-segregate on the weekends and in their private lives.”^14[7]  These are not careless remarks, but evidence of carefully designed strategy.

Of course, Americans are not cowards, and any Attorney General holding that view disqualifies himself for service.  Holder is willing to bet that he won’t get ousted from his office by the outcry over his remarks of disdain for his countrymen on the hopes that Americans will be cowering on at least two fronts.  As the first black Attorney General, Holder is gambling on the fear people will have of being called a racist for criticizing him for calling Americans cowards and racists.  He is also riding in on the wave of the new collaborative.

After years of groundwork laid by communitarians in the work place, and apostates in the worship place, Americans by and large are ‘in community’ under some Soviet hierarchy somewhere.  They are increasingly being attached in their private lives during evenings and on weekends by employers who are both secular and faith-based.  A charge that can now strike terror in many a small group gathering, who are in community, is not being in authentic community. This state is reached only by members continually divulging secretes about themselves in the form of confessions on the pretense of identifying and dealing with their inadequacies as a process of perfecting themselves in the incubus of the group; and which then allows the group to attain the coveted seal transparency.  Implicit in the word “authentic” is not only that it be genuine, but also that it be authorized.  The Attorney General has his sights set on the private lives of Americans to assess them, and to grant or withhold the federal seal of authenticity based on their activity in federally approved associations and pursuits.

Partnerships: The New Gloden Rule

In the previous faith-based federal program, churches could obtain federal money by moving away from Christ, and towards employment as a federal agency.  Now they have been redefined as one in several categories of community secular organizations, including “senior centers and shelters, schools and hospitals, and any place an American decides.^1[1]  The discretionary purview of the average American, however, will be very narrow in scope, and must comply with the “common goals” as defined for the White House Office of FBNP by Obama and Joshua DuBois, a former associate Pentecostal pastor, who will head the office.^2[1]   All organizational efforts must give priority to being a part of the solution for the current economic situation because the “Office’s top priority will be making community groups an integral part of our economic recovery and poverty a burden fewer have to bear when recovery is complete.”^3[1]  When the White House Office of FBNP will allow churches to return to their own priorities, such as ministering to and caring for their own congregations and preaching gospel, will be far off to never.

Terms used by the White House Office of FBNP to define success are vague and subjective; financial recovery won’t be complete until ‘fewer’ bear the ‘burden’ of poverty, but how much is fewer, and what constitutes a burden? Politically, this ambiguity always serves two designs; failure cannot be identified, and success can be claimed at any time.  Occasionally, political leaders strive to have it serve a much larger and more sinister purpose.  They will marshal general and all encompassing rhetoric to bolster their own preeminence in their quest for power over the masses.

This is the sort of rhetoric Obama is using to deny Christ and demote Christianity to nothing more that a faith-based organization to be amalgamated with all other faith-based religions that will in turn be answerable to the state above all else.  In preparing to announce the formation the White House Office of FBNP, Obama prefaced its disclosure at the National Prayer Breakfast.  There, Obama’s decree had the sweet ring of humility at its edges to disguise the clang of servitude at its center.  “There is one law that binds all great religions together,” Obama said.  “It is, of course, the Golden Rule; the call to love one another, to understand one another, to treat with dignity and respect those with whom we share a brief moment on this Earth.”^4[2]  There are a few important points which disqualify this ‘call’ from being a Christian clarion.

Firstly, Christianity is exclusive of all other religions, not bound together with any of them, in that Christ claimed to be the only way (Joh 14:6), and warned that other great religions would come along centered on “false Christs” and “false prophets” (Mat 24:24).  By this decree of one superseding and binding law the secular messiah places himself above all other religious authority, including the God of the Bible, and identifies himself as the arbiter of supreme laws all must acquiesce to, and be bound together under.  In order to sweep the nuisances of “red tape” that might get in his way,^5[1] Obama’s new White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships will begin legal maneuvers to chip away constitutional protections that safeguard religious freedom, and freedom of association.

The deceptive language that he chose is under the cover of federal assistance, and states that the newly established office has also been given “a new mechanism for the Executive Director of the Office to work through the White House Counsel to seek the advice of the Attorney General on difficult legal and constitutional issues.”^6[1]  The implication being proffered here is that these are difficulties impeding the dispensation of free federal money, but what the new law giver also means by that is enforcement.
