Church of Sweden

I will not use pronouns or any verbiage which may be called politically incorrect  when I am referring to the heads of these so-called churches in Sweden.

I will refer to them as what they truly are:  HERETICS and LIARS. I am sorry if I have offended any of my readers, but unfortunately “truth” is the new hate speech.

The gender neutral crowd are simply modern day feminists and homosexuals.  Satan has brought them into “churches” to confront, confuse and corrupt the Word of God.

I am sick to death of those who would claim to belong to our Lord Jesus, yet hate His Word. I am also sick to death of the so-called “Social Gospel.”

NEWS FLASH:  Jesus is LORD; God is called HE throughout the Scriptures.  Men and women are EQUAL in the eyes of God, but men and women clearly have different roles. God made this earth – the universe – and he made all of us. 

 Should the clay tell the Potter how to do His work?

“Woe to him who strives with his Maker!
Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth!
Shall the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’
Or shall your handiwork say, ‘He has no hands’? (Isaiah 45:9).

Church of Sweden Sets New Gender Neutral Rules: God Will No Longer Be Called “He” or “Lord”

The Church of Sweden set new rules regarding language to make the church more inclusive. The Church is urging clergy to use gender-neutral language and refrain from terms like “Lord” and “him.”

Last year Swedish lesbian bishop Eva Brune proposed removing crosses and Christian symbols from her church to make it more inclusive.

Breitbart.com reported:

The Church of Sweden has voted to adopt a controversial new handbook which says masculine references to God, such as “He” and “Lord” should be scrapped so as to be more “inclusive”.

Despite heavy criticism from organisations including Royal Swedish Academy, on Thursday the church approved the new handbook with a large majority.

The Church Handbook — which was last updated in 1986 — sets out how services, baptisms, weddings and funerals should be conducted, in language, liturgy, theology and music, and is therefore central to the church’s activities.

According to local media, many priests have objected to directions in the new handbook regarding language, which have been added with the goal of making the church “more inclusive”.

This includes instructing clergy to refer to God in a gender-neutral fashion, without “unnecessarily” using the male pronoun “He”, or terms like “Lord”.

From gotquestions.org   (excerpts)

Question: “Will there be a great apostasy / falling away during the end times?”

Answer: The Bible indicates that there will be a great apostasy during the end times. The “great apostasy” is mentioned in 2 Thessalonians 2:3. The KJV calls it the “falling away,” while the NIV and ESV call it “the rebellion.” And that’s what an apostasy is: a rebellion, an abandonment of the truth. The end times will include a wholesale rejection of God’s revelation, a further “falling away” of an already fallen world.

The Greek word translated “rebellion” or “falling away” in verse 3 is apostasia, from which we get the English word apostasy. It refers to a general defection from the true God, the Bible, and the Christian faith. Every age has its defectors, but the falling away at the end times will be complete and worldwide. The whole planet will be in rebellion against God and His Christ. Every coup requires a leader, and into this global apostasy will step the Antichrist. We believe this takes place after the church has been raptured from the earth.

Jesus warned the disciples concerning the final days in Matthew 24:10–12: “At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.” These are the characteristics of the great apostasy of the end times. – source

Brethren, I really must not write many more words, as I think that my anger at this apostasy will drive me into saying things which are not helpful.  Yes – we must pray for these deluded souls. Some are clearly beyond being saved (or seem to be). They love their sin and they believe the lie and refuse to come to the truth.

But we must always pray until God says stop. Then we shake the dust from our feet and move on.

Shalom b’Yeshua

Common Core Standards was a disaster from day one.
For those who do not realize why this so-called curriculum was implemented in the first place – it was the brain child (I use that term quite loosely) of Bill Gates and the United Nations.  The goal was simply to dumb down young minds. Instead of children using their God-given talents and creativity, the dumbing down of their minds was for one reason and one reason only:

Bill Gates and the U.N. want to create “future globalists” – children who will grow up with the mindset that they must not focus on themselves and their interests – or even the interests of their own country, but on being good globalist citizens.

I wrote a piece on Common Core Standards a couple of years ago:

 Your Child is Being Taught To Be an Obedient Globalist

But now, mad scientist and population-control fanatic, Bill Gates, has a new idea for our children.

After Common Core, Bill Gates Launches New Education Plan

After helping to further centralize and dumb down government education with Common Core standards, billionaire globalist Bill Gates (shown) has another “education” plan to meddle in your child’s schooling. However, after admitting that his previous schemes did not work out as planned, Gates vowed to pour almost $2 billion into everything from “new curricula” to “networks of schools that work together … and use data to drive continuous improvement.”

In other words, intimate details of children’s lives and minds will continue to be vacuumed up while “new curricula” are used to further indoctrinate America’s youth. And as with Common Core, while Gates will play a key role in setting the direction of education policy through his so-called “philanthropy,” taxpayers will be expected to continue paying for almost all of the scheming.

Gates, a fanatical advocate of abortion and population control, makes clear that his support for Common Core, into which he dumped some $2 billion, is not going anywhere. “We backed the Common Core because we believed, and still believe, that all students — no matter where they go to school — should graduate with the skills and knowledge to succeed after high school,” he said, offering standard talking points.

“It’s exciting to see how the standards are being brought to life in schools and classrooms. But more needs to be done to fully realize their potential,” he continued in his keynote speech at the 2017 summit for the Council of the Great City Schools. “Teachers need better curricula and professional development aligned with the Common Core.”

 **Side note:    The author of the article above is an accomplished writer – Christian and Conservative.   Alex Newman co-wrote a brilliant book titled “Crimes of the Educators.”  I highly recommend the readers to purchase this book.

The rest of article is from freedomproject.com   (Alex Newman):

Details of his schemes remain hazy, almost certainly on purpose. But Gates did say that each of the “networks” of schools he wants to create will be “backed by a team of education experts skilled in continuous improvement, coaching and data collection and analysis.” In short, Big Brother Gates’ Orwellian data-mining agenda wants ever more data to help manipulate children and their “education.”

It was not clear whether Gates was hoping his “networks” of schools would be able to bypass the local control of school boards in implementing his policy vision. But if his past machinations such as Common Core are anything to go by, that is almost guaranteed. In fact, Gates even inked a deal with the communist-run UN “education” agency UNESCO to create and promote a “master curriculum” infused with “UNESCO values,” helping to globalize education.

Critics, though, expressed skepticism about his latest schemes. Ze’ev Wurman, an education policy expert who advised a previous U.S. administration and has criticized Common Core, said “pivoting” in the way Gates is doing may be fine in private industry. “It is different when a private actor such as Gates uses his money to leverage public money – some $600 billion of it for his own relatively small investment of few tens of millions every year – to steer the public money to implement mediocre curricula and ill thought-out programs born of his feverish imagination and ignorance,” Wurman told Breitbart. “Yet that is precisely the track record – and the explicit acknowledgment – of Mr. Gates.”

“So Bill Gates’ pivoting is not just a matter for Mr. Gates losing his own money,” Wurman said. “It is an admission that he actively helped to misdirect some 4 TRILLION educational dollars over the last seven years, and that he harmed tens of millions of students during that time by imposing the mediocre and intrusive Common Core upon the nation.”

THE TAKE AWAY:

In 2014, Gates dropped a bombshell: “It would be great if our education stuff worked, but that we won’t know for probably a decade.” By “works,” he almost certainly meant “works” to successfully brainwash and dumb down children. But even if parents want to give him the benefit of the doubt on his motivations, are they willing to let their children serve as guinea pigs for a billionaire extremist who refuses to subject his own children to the experiment?

Parents, protect your children, now! And taxpayers, quit letting nutty billionaires like Gates and George Soros hijack your tax money through their alleged “philanthropic” giving — or face the consequences in the form of lost liberty and massive damage to future generations’ minds and souls. – source

Our grandson was an honor roll student before Common Core Standards was implemented in MD.  Many States have backed away from this harmful curriculum, and many are in the process of going back to the basics.  Unfortunately, MD is one of the most liberal states.  They have no plan on budging from what they see as a wonderful globalist education for our children.  After all – most liberals are certainly on the Globalist band wagon. Useful idiots…….

Many Christian parents are caught between a rock and hard place as far as their children’s education.  In a perfect world, these parents would either send their children to Christian schools or home school them.  Unfortunately, many of these families cannot afford a Christian school. Also, there are parents who, for many reasons, cannot home school.

If your children are in public schools – talk to them – ask them about their courses and have them show you what they are being taught.  If nothing else, this provides the opportunity to open the eyes of our children to the agenda behind these “Globalist” ideologies.  Teach them to think for themselves, and to pray often that they will be kept safe in the midst of this evil indoctrination.

Parents – Pray with your children!

Shalom b’Yeshua
