The Difficult Journey Ahead :: By Bill Wilson

The pandemic emergency in which American citizens ceded their civil rights to government mandates and lockdowns must end now. Enough damage has been inflicted upon individuals, businesses and the economy by the government, big pharma, a propaganda media machine, divisive politicians and Supreme Court justices that are so out of touch they can’t even accurately cite their own government’s statistics.

Delta is receding. Omicron is mild and is providing immunity. It’s time for the government and the leftist politicians to put away their harmful and hateful fear-mongering agendas and do the right thing: End the pandemic emergency and focus on responding to the aftermath of the crisis they created.

There is going to be much to fix. The economy, ransacked by reckless and ill-advised leftist policies, must be addressed. The aftermath of lockdowns, outrageous deficit spending, irresponsible imaginations about green energy and climate control, and job-killing decisions—all contributing to out-of-control inflation will take years, maybe decades, to resolve.

Foreign policy, which was so focused on mandates and migration, allowed for state actors such as Russia, China and Iran to advance their evil agendas somewhat under the radar. These are delicate and complicated international minefields that must be navigated carefully and firmly; otherwise, they will result in death and destruction for many.

The most challenging issue will be the long-term effects of the government health policies. Vaccines may have prevented some people from dying, but the side effects are just beginning to surface. CDC mandated treatment protocols and financial incentives for hospitals also may have caused more deaths than the vaccines saved. Incoming studies from reputable institutions are indicating alarming unexplained death rate increases in people 18-49, myocarditis, blood clots, and other organ and brain issues in the vaccinated population.

A Columbia University study concluded that VAERS deaths are 20 times higher than estimated (up to 400,000 deaths in the US) and that the risks of COVID vaccination outweigh the benefits in children, young and middle-age adults, and in older age groups with low occupational risk.

The authors said, “no one, especially those with good intentions and high hopes but who were misled by less-than-rigorous science, wants to acknowledge the possibility that the COVID vaccines and their boosters may be causing more harm than good overall. The sooner the taboo surrounding research and discussion of vaccine-induced injury and death is lifted, the sooner public health policy can be adjusted and resources can be mobilized to identify and develop therapies and interventions.”

Government and big pharma historically reject health issues tied to vaccines. But given current technology and data analysis, it may be more difficult to deny.

Proverbs 13:10 says, “By pride comes nothing but strife, but with the well-advised is wisdom.”

Wisdom will be needed to meet the challenges ahead. It will be a difficult journey.

Girding Against Deception :: By Bill Wilson

 

There were many ingredients of a worldwide brainwashing program taking place during the COVID hysteria over the last 18 months, many of which continue today. You don’t have to agree on the “why” or “who” behind it, but the truth of the matter is that the entire handling of this contagion resembles the steps toward brainwashing and tyranny.

Very similar to the Stockholm Syndrome in which hostages develop a psychological bond with their captors, people all over the world have formed a psychological connection with those who “protect” them from the fear of COVID. This includes the government, medical personnel, the media and others. People are bonded to the narrative rather than the facts.

Key elements to brainwashing or creating mass psychosis include isolation, monopolization of perceptions, making compliance easier than resistance, use of media to enforce demands, threats, and fear.

During COVID, society was locked down (isolation) for a long period of time. The government, big tech, and the media monopolized the narrative to the point of censuring any opposition. The narrative characterized compliance to simple mandates like wearing a mask as good citizenship. The media reinforced the narrative by emphatically stating any alternative opinions were “misinformation” and labeling people as anti-science. The government has threatened every person’s ability to hold a job if they don’t get the jab. All this fear over a disease that statistically you have a 99% chance of surviving.

The effects of this mass psychosis programming separate people from their ability to discern. They are unable to suspend their disbelief of what is happening to them. They get defensive. They refuse to believe the very facts of the truth presented before them. They cannot accept an alternative viewpoint and will aggressively defend their point of view.

I have received so many emails telling the stories of how family members, once very close to one another, have been torn apart by disagreement over the fear of COVID and what the government is doing. It has almost become a religious cult. There is no common sense or reasoning. The same facts that demonstrate the fallacies are used to support them.

How does one prevent this brainwashing and fear?

There are some easy things to do. Turn off the television news and be careful of the videos you watch. The constant bombardment of opinion only contributes to fear and anxiety. Stay informed by reading your news. This way, you control the stimulation of the senses. Do not submit to fear or the symbols of fear, such as mandates. Learn to discern by reading and absorbing the Bible.

Hebrews 4:12 says, “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of the soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”

The word of God, if you receive it in its context, will teach you to discern. Discernment is a weapon against the evil of this day and what it does to the mind.
