Why is it that on so many of the important news items I get the feeling that there is something lemming-like about the public response, according to what we see in the media?

Is it because our media slant those responses according to their left -wing views or is there really some powerful dark force projecting its views into the public arena? Or, Is it both?

Let’s face it, for example, the current gender issues have not until recently been a hot topic, common sense still prevailed. Are sea levels really rising? Take a look in your area, and remember the earth’s crust is not stationary.  Sydney harbour tidal records reveal no rise in the last 100 years, and from what I saw in Britain, it is the same there.  Don’t the Brits want to leave the EU, despite their unwilling Parliament?  An increasing majority say yes. Is abortion morally acceptable?  Yes, say the woke women, but the quiet majority are much more doubtful.  Is Israel really the Pariah State the media make it out to be, or is it really the only civilised, democratic State in the Middle East?

Do we see the world spiralling down  into more chaos, violence and depravity?  Are the leading Western nations in deep trouble? Are their rivals peaceful, human rights respecting democracies, or ambitious,  expansionist autocracies, which repress their own people?

So are we really being brainwashed by a subtle dark power?

Are we all heading towards strife and war?  Oh yes, and in spades! ‘That Dark Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.’  2 Corinthians 4:4, New Living Translation.         ‘….in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—’ Ephesians 2:2, ESV. 

That Dark Power is the temporary god of this world, the Prince of the power of the air, over which he broadcasts his spiritual mis-education to deceive humanity.

In fact there are only two sexes. The world will continue to exist despite man’s mistreatment. Britain will escape from the EU, because it is corrupt and anti- democratic. Abortion remains murder and there is always a penalty for sin. Israel will survive the Tribulation to come and will be instrumental in the rebuilding the nations after the greatest war the earth has ever seen.

How do I know?  It’s all in the Book, and thankfully its main message is the gospel (the good news) of the coming Kingdom of God, but only after we have learned the hard way, by following that Dark Power.
