Is God the Father of all? Are we His children now? You may be surprised, but you will also be encouraged to discover what the Bible really says about this.
While it is not so popular in today’s secular world, historically mankind has commonly spoken of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. This is a tacit admission that God is the Creator and therefore considered the Father of all. It acknowledges that all human beings are equal and on a different plane from God. Furthermore, if we accept that the entire human race sprang from Adam and Eve, then God as their creator could be seen as the Father of all.
There is nothing wrong with this analogy, but it is not the reason the Bible calls certain people the children of God.
Bringing many sons to glory
The Bible clearly teaches that human beings who are saved from this world will be resurrected from the dead, will be given everlasting life, and will enter into God’s family as His children. God the Father has proclaimed His purpose in describing one of the roles of Jesus Christ, the Savior, calling Him the Captain of our salvation.
All that Jesus did was done to further God’s plan of “bringing many sons to glory” (Hebrews 2:10). The ultimate hope of Christians is to become glorious spirit-born children in the family of God in the next life.
But what about now? Are we the children of God today?
The apostle John answers, saying, “Beloved, now we are the children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is” (1 John 3:2). Is he saying all people on earth are the “children of God”? Or is John speaking to a select group?
When Jesus Christ came to the earth as a human being, He repeatedly said that no one had known the Father. He further stated that it was impossible for one to know the Father unless Christ revealed Him (see Matthew 11:27).
It was evident that man was not living as if God were the Father of all. Jesus made this plain when He told His followers, “And these things they will do to you because they have not known the Father nor Me” (John 16:3). Indeed, some would be persecuted for following Christ and submitting to the Father. Jesus expressed it this way: “If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you” (John 15:20).
The fact is that it can be dangerous to be a child of God in our world today—just as it was for Jesus back then.
But just who are the children of God?
The simple answer is that children of God are individuals who have renounced and forsaken the ways of sin and death and turned to God for redemption through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Though not fully born into the spirit family of God, they have been granted the Holy Spirit to guide and lead them in the way of God. This changes the way they think and live. They model themselves after Jesus and follow His instruction. They are members of the spiritual Body of Christ, His Church on earth today, waiting for His return. By analogy, they are like babies in the womb, already begotten of their father but not yet come to full birth. (See our article “What Does It Mean to Be Born Again?” for a fuller explanation of the analogies the Bible uses.)
When we recognize our sinful state and turn wholeheartedly to God, that action is called repentance. When we accept the sacrifice of Christ to pay the eternal death penalty for sin, we are baptized as an expression of our faith in His power to save us. Following baptism, we receive the Holy Spirit, which gives an added dimension to our minds, allowing us to discern spiritual truth, including right and wrong. This is called conversion, as we have now changed our focus and manner of living.
Notice: “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God” (Romans 8:14). And again, “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God” (verse 16, King James Version). At conversion, we become the children of God, identifiable in both word and deed.
The children of God emulate Jesus
If we are the children of God, we will be known to God—and to our detractors—by our way of life, which is contrary to the way of human reasoning and human values. He says, “In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother” (1 John 3:10).
Christians—the children of God—take on the attitude and love of God, our new Father, “as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature,having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust” (2 Peter 1:3-4, emphasis added throughout).
The phrase divine nature represents a powerful expression of closeness to God. It means that as children of God we are taking on the spiritual characteristics of our Heavenly Father.
The children of the devil
Jesus described the leaders of His day as children of the devil—not that Satan created them, but that his influence pervaded their thinking and actions. This has been true through all human history for the vast majority of mankind.
In human terms, you cannot choose your father or mother. But in spiritual terms, we must make the choice. We can submit to the Spirit of God and become His little children, walking in the footsteps of our elder brother Jesus Christ—or we can continue to serve Satan by default, simply doing nothing to escape his control.Christ revealed this satanic influence and control over man when He said, “You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him” (John 8:44). These selfish attributes are completely contrary to the divine nature.
Which father do we want to have?
Can you choose your father?
In human terms, you cannot choose your father or mother. But in spiritual terms, we must make the choice. We can submit to the Spirit of God and become His little children, walking in the footsteps of our elder brother Jesus Christ—or we can continue to serve Satan by default, simply doing nothing to escape his control.
But we should realize that Satan has nothing good in store for us. His game is to deceive us into believing that we are free to be and do whatever we choose, without regard to our Heavenly Father, the Creator God. Just as he did with Adam and Eve, the devil claims there is no penalty for sin.
Eventually, Christ will intervene and bind Satan from deceiving man any more. Then, as Paul says, “The creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God” (Romans 8:21).
Yes, the children of God on earth today are living examples of what can and will happen to all peoples when Christ returns and establishes His Kingdom of peace and joy. They are experiencing true liberty—freedom to serve God and reject the deadly deceptions of Satan. They live in freedom from fear of death and freedom from confusion about what happens after death. Those who practice God’s law of love understand why the apostle James calls it the “perfect law of liberty” (James 1:25).
A plan of salvation for all
This truth may surprise you, but please understand that the Bible teaches that God is not converting the entire world today. God is not in some competition with Satan to win souls. Most are not even invited to be His children at this time.
Notice this astounding statement overlooked by most people, even the religious: “No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day” (John 6:44).
The Father’s plan of salvation calls for a limited number of people to become His children in this age. Jesus called them a “little flock” (Luke 12:32). The rest of mankind will be called to conversion in later ages, following the return of Christ to this earth. Believe it or not, even those who are long dead will have a future opportunity to accept the sacrifice of Christ and become the children of God. (Study more about what the Bible teaches about God’s plan to give everyone a chance in the articles “Judgment of God: The Real Story” and “Second Resurrection: A Second Chance?”)
Since God is calling only a fraction of mankind to salvation today, His calling is very precious.
Are you among the children of God?
Are we now the children of God? Ask yourself that question! If we are converted, we certainly are (1 John 3:1-2). But we are still fleshly children, not yet transformed into the eternal beings with spiritual bodies that God has in store for us (1 Corinthians 15:44; Romans 8:18-23). (See our article “What Does It Mean to Be Born Again?” for a fuller explanation of both of these analogies.)
What a wonderful truth to know that we can actually become the eternal children of God! As John said, “We know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is” (1 John 3:2). This change happens at the resurrection of the righteous at the return of Christ.
That great and glorious day is coming soon. If you are being called of God now, you need to rejoice in this opportunity and turn to God with all your heart. You, too, can be a part of God’s plan of “bringing many sons to glory” (Hebrews 2:10)!
If you have not read the companion article “Children of God,” we encourage you to read it now. And you’ll want to study and apply the biblical steps outlined in our free booklet Change Your Life! It shows how we can become more like our loving Father now so we can be with Him for eternity.
Thirteen years ago the world changed; though it is only with the benefit of perspective may we clearly see the extent and duration of that change. But change it did and remarkably so after perspective is found and the world is seen for what it really is rather than what we are told it is. Or what we want it to be based upon our own cultural conditioning and personally biased worldview.
This is not to say I see clearly, that I possess an unbiased mind, special insight or clarity of vision. Far from it in fact. On a daily basis I fight the tendency to develop a rigid mindset and view the world through that comforting lens. To help me resist this temptation I must constantly remind myself a static world view often results from my need to feel I can understand and control what is at times incomprehensible and most certainly uncontrollable. I have learned from personal experience the more I feel out of control the more I will try to exert control. It is a battle I will lose every time if I engage.
There is so much intentionally created confusion and misinformation out there that anyone claiming to know exactly what is going on is either tragically self deluded and living in a fantasy world, ideologically deaf, dumb and blind or a misinformation agent attempting to muddy the waters some more. I am not sure if anyone knows our true history anymore, including those entities busy rewriting it at this very moment.
That said, a huge and tragic mistake made by nearly all of us (not just the mainstream media contrarians reading this) is to assume we must have in place a complete and detailed historical narrative, including names, confessions and the smoking gun, before we discard the previous one, particularly if the one being discarded is ‘official’. This is of course a ridiculous requirement since from a logic and common sense point of view one is not required to know what is right in order to declare something wrong.
This incredibly effective controlling mind meme has become so thoroughly embedded within the collective consciousness that even so-called critical thinkers repeat this demand of anyone approaching them to request they re-examine their beliefs and consider alternatives. I am speaking directly to you and me, the alternative media reader here. This is a demand I might add we would unilaterally reject as preposterous if applied to our own ‘profession’, but which we gratefully embrace when protecting our cherished belief systems regardless of whether it is the official narrative or a contrary point of view. At times we are all trapped by our rigid thinking.
Even those who have rejected the official historical account of > fill in the blank < as balderdash are often quick to offer up an alternative thesis lest they be perceived as less than credible, competent or even (perish the thought) a conspiracy theorist. This is the greatest mind killing, thought stopping epitaph ever created by the thought control police since accusations of witches, warlocks and devil worshipers were used to control dissenting thought. Regardless of your mind set one must admit this is brilliantly applied mind control technique via co-opted language and the hive mind. Score one to the CIA for that little gem.
The fact is liars lie and those who profit from lying, and by profit I don’t mean exclusively financial, will lie until the cows come home and “We the People” are pacified (or at least mentally, physically and emotionally disarmed) once again. Thus it fascinates me to no end how in one breath someone will declare all politicians and government officials are liars and corrupt, and in the next vigorously defend what ‘their’ lying politician and authority has claimed is the God’s Honest Truth and the ‘official’ story. And with a pinky swear no less. “That’s my story and I’m sticking to it…..until I claim to have misspoken and we start all over again.”
Of course this almost always applies to the really big lies, the ones everyone can comfortably believe since no one would ever tell a whopper like that. After all, we can bitch and complain all we want about the effects of the corrupt system, but we must never fully question the very basis of the corrupt system itself for this will force us to question ourselves and our part in the charade. Careful we don’t bite the hand that feeds us……even if what we feed upon are ‘just’ yummy emotional security tidbits and a ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ affirmation of what is ‘normal’……so long as we don’t look beyond the paper thin veneer.
This neurosis of ours is skillfully played to the hilt, both by those who lie to us and by those who wish to be lied to. Truth be told we all enjoy a comforting lie now and then, just as long as it fits reasonably well within our overall worldview and inner narrative. In this way we are able to have our cake and eat it too, to both believe the (big) lie while not really believing (all of) it. Just don’t look too closely at the glaring conflicts and omissions in the official and alternative narratives, while at the same time looking just close enough to substitute in something that better fits into our own personal and infinitely customizable view of the world.
Which brings me to the subject of this article, “9/11 – The Ultimate Litmus Test”. Let me declare upfront that I ‘know’ two things with an extremely high degree of certainty about 9/11.
Number one, I have no idea exactly what happened on that brilliantly blue second Tuesday in September, let alone who and what was behind the event. And anyone who says they do is either blinded by their ideology, full of self deluded bullshit, or the mastermind of the entire operation. Please note I said EXACTLY. I know a lot about 9/11 and that is the problem. What I think I know is far greater than what I actually ‘know’. With that in mind I try to remind myself I have just enough information to make me dangerous to myself and no one else.
I am very comfortable stating for the record I ‘know’ almost nothing with absolute certainty about 9/11 and much of what I suspect happened on that beautiful fall day is little more than opinion and supposition. The only (slight) advantage I may have over many others when considering this subject is I wasn’t as deeply imprinted psychologically that morning/day because I was recovering from emergency surgery the night before and was enjoying the sweet bliss of a doctor prescribed morphine drip.
It was truly remarkable and quite surreal watching huge buildings disintegrate into dust with no emotional involvement or investment on my part. I know I upset several traumatized nurses and doctors that morning with my unsympathetic appraisal of the unfolding Psyops. Even in my drugged state I could recognize a con when it was being foisted upon us. But knowing something is a con and knowing how the con is run and who and what are behind it are two very different balls of tangled yarn.
It is the ultimate of egoic arrogance and hubris, which itself often carefully conceals our fear and emotional insecurity, for anyone to declare they ‘know’ who, what, when, where and why when in fact most of what they ‘know’ is at best supposition, hypothesis and logic based guessing. Naturally most of us get around this by asserting we ‘know’ most of what happened and would know all if only those dirty rotten bastards would come clean and spill the beans.
It is one thing to point out logical inconsistencies, outright contradictions and false statements in the official narrative, not to mention deliberate omissions and the obscuring of information. It is another entirely to state unequivocally ‘we’ know this or that, then point to the problems within the official narrative as ‘proof’ we are correct.
This speaks directly to the neurotic need of so many contrarians (that means you and me dear reader) to present an alternative explanation to replace the one we reject in order to appear credible. Why in the world are ‘we’ so worried about appearing credible to those who have no intention of believing anything other than what they wish to believe? And yet ‘we’ do.
Number two, the official 9/11 cover story stinks worse than two week old fish in August and is so full of holes it contains no substantial factual ‘truth’ to speak of other than bits and pieces here and there held together with baling wire and chewing gum. This is not to say there is no ‘truth’ (maybe I should say ‘fact’ since truth is often subjective) in the story.
Any competent liar will insistent a critical ingredient when concocting a successful (read plausible) lie is to mix just enough truth, especially self damaging truth, into the fetid cesspool of deception, deceit and duplicity. The best ‘genuine imitation’ stew is the one that contains a little real beef mixed in with the chunks of mystery meat and salmonella.
The ‘official’ 9/11 cover story is so full of crap the smell test alone is the early warning sign to fumigate and then repeatedly flush while hoping the septic tank or municipal sewer system can handle the mess without backing up. However the brilliance behind this treachery IS the cover story, as is the case with all reasonably well executed cover stories regardless of how transparent it might be. Enough ‘truth’, omission, scapegoats, blind alleys, false leads, backtracking and ideological red herrings has been seeded into the official cover-up to keep EVERYONE on both sides of the aisle endlessly chasing their tails. A true one-size-fits-all disinformation narrative if ever there was one.
For those who don’t wish to acknowledge the extremely uncomfortable truth they are sleeping with the enemy (meaning the mainstream media mesmerized) there are just enough self damaging ‘facts’ mixed into the official stew to ‘allow’ them to believe any variety of alternative narratives that point towards governmental/military incompetence, bald faced greed and self dealing, cover-your-ass bureaucratic backpedaling, terrorist ‘bad’ guys who hate-us-for-our-freedom let-me-sleep-like-a-baby ‘beliefs’.
Just as long as ‘we’ are given whatever it takes to avoid looking too closely into the black abyss and seeing ‘us’ for what ‘we’, as well as those formerly and presently in power, really are. After all I can call my wife a whore or my government a killer of its citizens, but if you say that….well, them thar is fighting words.
Then there is the so called alternative point of view championed by a witch’s brew of dissenting, disaffected and downright angry individuals and small groups who, sadly and unfortunately, have been thoroughly infiltrated and mostly disarmed by the grand keepers of The Big Lie.
That neurotic impulse previously mentioned, of the need to present a complete and plausible alternative explanation when rejecting the official narrative, is expertly used to leverage every possible alternative account regardless of how plausible, or not, it may be. So long as everyone is going nowhere we can spin our wheels to our hearts content while the Grand Parade marches on. Lots of smoke, but no fire, is the objective of the disruptors and disinformation peddlers.
Not only does this keep the minions busy fighting among themselves, but anyone on the outside brave enough to fight back their inner fear of leaving the Matrix and taking a peek inside the alternative reality world is quickly spooked back to dry land by the absolute insanity and brutality of the alternative blogosphere. This is as much by design as by happenstance. Some people are truly just trolls and some are agents of the system hired to send the rabbits out of their holes and into the waiting arms of the existing insane asylum. And sadly some just follow the leader troll and act out their inner aggressions.
Somewhere in the middle of the true crazies screaming bloody murder, the misinformation agents acting out their roles as either crazies or ‘experts’ (and sometimes both), the mostly well intentioned individuals just seeking to find some answers amongst the deafening roar, and the vast silent majority of the minority, those who are truly frightened and confused and who just want the insanity to go away so they can go back to some sort of peaceful sleep, lay the ‘truth’ – slowly being starved to death for lack of nutrition and nurturing by all parties involved.
Contrary to the alternative universe crowd’s present day self image, the desire to go back to sleep seems to be the case for a large and growing population of frightened angry people who are skillfully manipulated, or at least herded, into self destructive actions, self defeating chest beating and righteously indignant late night screaming by way of blogging and posting passionate diatribes via the Interwebby – on occasion this author included.
Mission accomplished as far as the controllers are concerned. Better to have the disaffected corralled in the cattle shoot snipping at one another rather than out in the streets directly confronting authority or taking incremental steps towards slowly withdrawing from the enslaving system. Impossible you say? These human psychological bomb defusing and disposal techniques are older than Jesus Christ himself, stretching back to well before the Roman Empire. All the way back in fact to the Egyptian pharaohs. [On a side note a totally fascinating and somewhat well documented theory posits that Christianity was created and/or hijacked by the Romans to counter and defuse what was at the time a militantly violent and revolutionary Jewish religion bent on the overthrow and destruction of the Roman Empire in what we today call the Middle East. Have you ever seriously considered why the Old Testament is so militant and violent while the New Testament is essentially passive? Or pondered why the Jewish faith does not accept the New Testament? Talk about hijacked; if even slightly true, consider the similarities between this theory and what is happening within and to the Muslim religion today by forces outside and within that faith.]
Remarkably, while ‘our’ recorded history has been repeatedly distorted, re-written and omitted time after time, the distortion techniques used are all very well documented and displayed in plain sight for all who are not ideologically blind to see. In my opinion this is a not-so-subtle middle finger to those who claim to be right minded and on the side of truth and justice for all. Essentially we are being told, “This is what we do and how we do it. Whatcha gonna do about it fool?”
How do you defeat someone or something much larger than you? Ask any martial arts or military strategy expert and they will tell you the secret to their universe in a few choice words………deception and leverage. Instead of acting to protect ourselves from the predators who use these techniques against ‘us’, we enable them by destroying ourselves and those around us. Just spend a little time studying some recent history from the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s for some examples of self destruction, though I suggest you stay away from the official cover stories endlessly repeated via history textbooks and encyclopedias.
Have you ever wondered what happened to the various ‘popular’ movements and uprisings of those three decades? Again and again and again agents acting in the interest of the power elite and status quo infiltrated anything perceived to be a threat in order to sidetrack, dissolve or outright control any and all ‘subversive’ groups using polarizing techniques that are timeless in their effectiveness and efficiency.
There is only one rule to follow for all centers of power and that is to protect and preserve that power. This applies whether the power resides in governments, (central) banks, corporations, kings, pharaohs or Caesars all the way down to petty school yard bullies and megalomaniac Wal-Mart assistant managers.
If it is newly consolidated power acquired with the ‘consent’ of the people then initially those catered to will be “We the People”. But over time, as the absolute power corrupts absolutely, the fastest and easiest way to remain on top is through increasingly more widespread corruption via confiscating the wealth of the people and then spreading it among those few most able and available to assist in the maintenance of that power. Thus corruption spreads and infects everyone including “We the People” who in many cases must resort to these same methods in order to survive within the insanity. Either we become the mob or we die by the mob.
While anything goes in the pursuit of this goal, towards the end of Empire (regardless of the size of that empire) increasingly more ruthless and ‘efficient’ methods are employed to control the herd as the facade that originally kept “We the People” sedated and sated, or at least at bay, dissolves into an orgy of excess and opulence for those who ‘have’ (and who were granted special indulgences by the King) and oppressive drugged drudgery for those who have not, all while “We the People’s” remaining money and wealth are debased and destroyed.
Actually I misspoke at the top of this article (to use that wonderful Newspeak term politicians love to use when backtracking in a hurry) when I said the world changed back on September 11, 2001. What changed was our perception, our worldview, in what was the largest real time experiment in mass hypnosis and perception management ever attempted in order to justify what was already in the works. Problem…Reaction…Solution in all its ugly glory writ large, live and in living color on nearly every TeeVee in the world.
Just because we were witness to such monstrous depravity as to curdle mother’s milk in situ doesn’t mean we cannot sit back and admire the craftsmanship and chutzpah, the grand illusion both as it unfolded and afterward, as it roiled and regurgitated in the world’s gut like a half digested Thanksgiving feast with no bicarbonate in sight.
One must vigorously applaud the spectacle of being told in real time to ignore our lying eyes and ‘believe’ what we are being told, then over the following months and years to backtrack, misspeak, re-speak, doublespeak and un-speak as the initial lie is reformed, refined and rammed up our butts ever deeper, all while we beg for more while cowering from the ghosts of terrorists past, present and future.
It was and remains a masterful job, simply masterful, despite its glaring and painfully obvious miscues, screw-ups and blatant public perception manipulation. It doesn’t matter how obvious the lie is if people don’t want to know the truth. “Tell me another lie Dad so I can believe it’s the truth. Everything is gonna be OK, right?”
So exactly what is this litmus test I’m talking about and how does it apply to you and me. Well, it depends upon who ‘you’ are. I have repeatedly stated that what is not said is often far more important then what is said. So for those who hold the ‘public trust’, a title that extends far beyond public servants such as politicians and other ‘officials’, if they continue to uphold the overall ‘official’ 9/11 story even while questioning it in a roundabout manner, it is in my opinion the litmus test.
Worse I have grown weary of the disingenuous argument put forth by some that to speak frankly in public about 9/11 will destroy their credibility and thus their effectiveness as they battle the Empire from within. If one does not speak out against the Empire, yet one derives power from the Empire, ‘one’ is little more than a lackey and controlled opposition to/of/for the Empire. One ‘fact’ is becoming crystal clear as we progress deeper and deeper into this insanity. The Empire serves The Empire and only those who serve The Empire. Period!
At some point down the road to total corruption all energy expended by The Empire, and those who suckle from The Empire, is directed towards sustaining and defending The Empire. From that point on one is either serving that purpose (and lackeys, useful idiots and controlled opposition most certainly do) or one is expelled by The Empire from the (inner) circle of The Empire. Thus any chance one might have had to ‘change’ The Empire is lost………because there was never a ‘chance’ to change it from within to begin with.
I am not calling out anyone in particular because doing so would serve no purpose other than to start a shouting match and further the ‘divide and conquer’ technique those in power use to control and subvert those who are not in power and might otherwise have a voice. I have no doubt many who profess to be battling The Empire from within truly believe they are doing so. That said ultimately it does not change the fact that at best, in the eyes of The Empire, they are useful idiots regardless of whether they know or care they are.
But the second part of the 9/11 Litmus Test applies to everyone else who believes whatever they want to believe regarding 9/11. I don’t care which side of the fence we are on, either pro or anti official story or anywhere in between, because it really doesn’t matter. If our view is fixed and unmoving, or worse, confined to a small narrow space where we can maintain the illusion of intellectual flexibility, we too are useful idiots and pawns of The Empire. Notice I say ‘we’ because I am not immune to this infection.
The Empire cares not what we think so long as we are safely corralled within thought boxes and mind memes. Just as long as we hope/expect/pray change is coming, even if that change is believed to spring from collapse brought about by corruption, fiat debasement, loss of dollar reserve status, foreign overextension of empire, foreign or domestic war, whatever the case may be, we for the most part will remain in place feeding the beast……even while we make plans and prepare for “The End of Empire”.
This holds true even for those who choose to believe little to no change is coming, essentially another of the ‘official’ stories we can all believe in. If I can convince myself things will work out, that all we need to right the ship of state is a different President, Congressional critter or some new laws forcing ‘them’ to stop messing things up (read that as change without…well, you know…’change’) then once again I render myself impotent and from The Empire’s perspective safely on the sidelines biding my time while still participating in the Ponzi and feeding the machine.
What 9/11 did, quite effectively I might add, is violently and dramatically change and focus the world’s perspective in general and the average American citizen’s in particular. A ‘new’ boogeyman was created in order for attention to be directed towards a specific area, which just so happens to draw attention away from another. Thirteen years later the intended consequences are still being implemented. As long as we remain mesmerized by the symptoms of the disease we remain effectively disabled from dealing with the root cause of our illness. Mission Accomplished!
It is time to wake up and head deeper down the rabbit hole. Contrary to popular belief ‘our’ collective problems will not be solved unless and until our inner dysfunction and insanity are confronted and recognized. We are our own worst enemy; a quaint saying everyone thinks applies to others and not to ourselves. As long as ‘We the People” continue to believe this fallacy the ancient divide and conquer techniques will reign supreme.
The 9/11 Litmus Test is not about what we know or don’t know, but how we deal with our knowledge and ignorance as well as ourselves while doing so. Once we begin to lift the veil of ignorance and ideology we are like sharks; either we keep moving forward or we die. There is no more treading water for that is reserved for those left behind.
Government engineered false-flag terrorism is a historically
established fact. For centuries, political and financial elites have
been sinking ships, setting buildings on fire, assassinating diplomats,
overthrowing elected leaders, and blowing people up, then blaming these
disasters on convenient scapegoats so that they can induce fear in the public
and transfer more power to themselves. Skeptics might argue whether certain
calamities have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt to be false-flag events,
but no one can argue that such tactics have not been used by the establishment
in the past. Governments have openly admitted to creating bloody and catalyzing
tragedies under false pretenses, like Operation Gladio, a false-flag
program in Europe supported by European and American covert agencies which
lasted decades, from the 1950's to the 1990's.
Gladio utilized well-paid and trained rogue groups and agents as well as
patsies, compartmentalized and controlled, who would commit atrocities against
the European public. These atrocities would then be blamed on “left wing
extremists”, galvanizing the citizenry and political representatives towards the
false East/West paradigm. The superficial motivation given by whistleblowers was
that Gladio was to be used to keep the right wing in power. However, the broader
and deeper goal was clearly to manipulate Europeans into accepting a unification
mindset, paving the way for the eventual centralization of Europe into the EU
supranational block. Gladio, is only one well documented example of false-flag
terrorism being exploited by governments to mold mass psychology towards greater
collectivism.
It is therefore vital that the public question the legitimacy of
EVERY so-called “terrorist attack” or geopolitical incident, otherwise, we may
find ourselves duped into supporting wars and unconstitutional actions that only
end up poisoning our society and elevating tyrants.
Why do I believe a new false-flag event is imminent?
America has not suffered a large scale terrorist attack for over 13 years, after
all. I can only say that current trends and international developments seem to
be spiraling towards a breaking point; a kind of singularity, and if you
understand that the majority of these events are deliberately engineered, then
you also understand that the inevitable singularity (or primary disaster) is
engineered as well.
The foremost current threat and most useful scapegoat is, of course, the ISIS
insurgency in the Middle East. If one's source of information was the mainstream
media alone, one might be inclined to believe that ISIS has materialized out of
nowhere to become a menace so organized and effective it has eclipsed Al-Qaeda
as the hot button boogeyman used by the establishment. ISIS is certainly a
disturbing militant group that goes out of its way to play the villain, complete
with scary Muslim clothing and beards, not to mention the severed heads and
indiscriminate genocide. Where is Jack Bauer when you need him, right?
The cartoonish nature of ISIS is not accidental, but I can see why
they frighten a subset of the American population; if I didn't know that they
were funded by the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, with military aid from Israel, then I
might find them a terrifying enigma as well.
ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was held at a U.S. run detention facility
called Camp Bucca from 2005 until 2009. Before his imprisonment, Baghdadi's
friends and family reported him to be a “quiet, studious fellow who was also a
talented soccer player”. Only
one year after being released from U.S. detention, however, he was a
fanatical Islamic extremist who would go on to command the ISIS caliphate. In
2011, the U.S. State Department listed Bagdhadi as a “Specially Designated
Global Terrorist” with a bounty of $10 million. There is no public record as to
why Baghdadi was originally detained.
Former U.S. Air Force security officer, James Skylar Gerrond, served at Camp
Bucca while Bagdhadi was held there, and is quoted as saying "Many of us at Camp
Bucca were concerned that instead of just holding detainees, we had created a
pressure cooker for extremism." Indeed...
Let's look at the culmination of events that led to the current
incarnation that is ISIS:
George W. Bush signed and Barack Obama enforced (sorry politifact cultists,
but they are BOTH to blame) a new foreign policy framework which allowed the
release of numerous (and now somehow radicalized) prisoners from facilities like
Camp Bucca in 2009.
The Libyan civil war erupts, as “rebels” are aided
by the CIA and multiple foreign governments. These are the same rebels who
would ultimately participate in the Benghazi raid on a U.S. consulate/CIA
complex.
Libyan agents along with CIA operatives move
into Jordan, where they have been training Syrian insurgents for over a year
(officially - much longer unofficially), and still
train them to this day, despite the apprehensions of the Jordanian
government.
Libyan insurgents along with newly trained operatives have also
shifted into Syria, turning general civil unrest into outright war.
ISIS recently gave praise to one of its commanders, a man from Libya, who had
fought
in the Libyan civil war, and in Syria, and in Iraq.
The U.S. has been secretly arming and training ISIS extremists in Syria for
years, but only at the end of 2013 and the beginning of 2014 did it begin a more
open
campaign to provide support.
The Israeli government also aided insurgent groups in Syria using
airstrikes to cripple Syrian Government regional command centers. It is also
currently providing
medical aid to Syrian rebels.
It was insurgent Sunni majority groups, trained in Jordan and funded by Saudi
Arabia that have linked with Saudi funded groups in Iraq to form what we now
know as ISIS. These are NOT separate groups acting autonomously. These are U.S.
backed organizations acting in concert, and coalescing into a single
movement – ISIS.
Violent genocidal actions, mass executions, as well as torture have become
the common calling card of the establishment organized Islamic insurgent groups.
Despite this horrifying development, Barack Obama is STILL seeking
over $500 million in aid to Syrian rebels, though the rhetoric now specifies
that funds and arms will only go to “moderate and well-vetted” insurgents. As
far as I can tell, there are no “moderate” insurgents in Syria; insurgents that
are now moving into Iraq and bringing their distinct brand of barbarism with
them.
On the Council On
Foreign Relations website, the globalist think-tank argued that the
inclusion of extremist Al-Qaeda elements in the Syrian insurgency “improved the
moral” of the movement, stating that the “Free Syrian Army needs Al-Qaeda now”.
The CFR acknowledges that the goal of Al-Qaeda operatives in Syria is not
necessarily to overthrow Assad, but to establish an Islamic state. Despite this,
the CFR still continues
its support of the strategy to overthrow Assad.
In an absurd display of forced schizophrenia, globalist organizations along
with the puppet White House now argue that the existence of ISIS in Iraq and
Syria, the same ISIS insurgency THEY CREATED, requires the U.S. to execute
air strikes and military intervention in the region. Of course, to remain
“fair and balanced”, the White House proposes to
strike Syrian Government targets as well in order to avoid “strengthening
Assad”. Yeah, read that twice, folks...
Remember the Syrian crisis at the end of last year? Remember how the U.S. and
Russia were on the verge of conflict over Obama's funding of the insurgency as
well as his proposal to provide air support? Well, now the plan is to utilize
air strikes against the same insurgents we had originally planned to help with
air strikes.
Now, I have asked this question in the past, and I'll ask it again – Is it
merely irony that the White House is going to war with the covert militant group
it gave birth to?
No, it is not irony. It is planned. ISIS is the new and improved Al-Qaeda.
All of the terrorist disaster scenarios showcased in propaganda shows like '24'
that seem rather ridiculous to many Americans if plotted by Al-Qaeda goat
herders hiding in caves in Afghanistan and Pakistan now become believable if
plotted by highly organized and savvy ISIS operatives.
Don't believe ISIS is savvy? I don't either, aside from the CIA agents
pulling their strings. However, DoD officials and others have been bombarding
the mainstream media with one specific meme: ISIS is awesome!
Chuck Hagel, Department of Defense Secretary, has made statements claiming
that “ISIL (ISIS) poses
a threat greater than 9/11... “
"They're beyond just a terrorist group. They marry ideology
with a sophisticated strategic and tactical military prowess and they're
tremendously well-funded. This is way
beyond anything we have seen. We must prepare for everything. Get
Ready!"
U.S. Special Operations sources argue that ISIS is an
“incredible fighting force”, acting more like a “state with a military” than
a disorganized band of guerrillas. I would argue that ISIS tactics appear
sophisticated exactly because they are receiving sophisticated direction from
state funded covert intelligence agencies like the CIA.
Retired Lieutenant General Thomas McInerney recently revealed that he
believed a new 9/11 event is looming, and I would like to note that even if this
is true, the Neo-Conservatives are no more a solution to the problem than the
Neo-Liberals.
Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), the top Republican on the Senate Armed Services
Committee claims
that ISIS members are “rapidly developing a method of blowing up a major
U.S. city...”
In the meantime, Senators on both sides of the fake aisle are warning
the Obama Administration that ISIS is the “best funded terror group in
history”.
With all this hype circling ISIS, I have to suggest that maybe, just
maybe, we are being given the ultimate scapegoat for the ultimate false flag
attack. When building the narrative of a traditional story, the hero is
really a secondary character, because the hero is only as impressive as the
villain he must eventually defeat. If you look at mainstream media and
geopolitics as a theater script, rather than a series of random events, it
appears as though ISIS is being built up as a villain so pervasive and devious
the group could accomplish ANYTHING.
I believe the time is in fact ripe for a large scale false-flag on
American soil. It may be a singular attack limited to a city or region,
or, numerous smaller attacks executed in concert. I see the media overload of
ISIS fever as a means to condition the public to believe in the ISIS myth – the
myth that they are a sophisticated international super-terrorist conglomerate; a
real life Legion of Doom. If Americans are conned into buying this myth, they
may also be fooled into abandoning their Constitutional liberties and natural
freedoms in the face of a well planned attack blamed on ISIS elements.
I believe there will likely come a day when the mere act of exposing the
lie or standing against government overreach will be called "treason", and
people like myself will be labeled "no better than ISIS".
If an attack does take place in the name of ISIS, it is vital that Americans
remember that this is not the violent invasion of a foreign army, that there is
no Islamic enemy except that which our government created, that this is not some
unexpected form of “blowback” from terrorists who used to be our allies, that
this is an engineered attack by contracted employees of our own defense and
intelligence apparatus leading a horde of useful psychopaths, and just like
during Operation Gladio, the goal will be to terrify you and those
around you into seeking out a more powerful, more centralized government
authority to protect your security, to provide cover for the
continued planned collapse of American society into third world status, and
out of these ashes, the centralization of the political and financial
foundations of our world into the hands of an elite few.

The American media hasn't covered Fukushima for a long time. But that doesn't mean there hasn't been any news. It just means that the U.S. and Japanese governments have worked hard to cover it up.
