Usury in Christendom: The Mortal Sin that Was and Now is Not

U.S. customers to purchase click here:

“I am writing for humanity in a world eaten by usury.” Ezra Pound

From Michigan-based economist Daniel Krynicki:

"Monetary reformers dot our landscape, the majority of whom consider that Christian faith is an evil that works against society’s best interests. They consider that the outlawing of interest in moneylending would be a legal practice that will actually be the act of an all powerful state…I once had been active in their 'Google Social Credit' forum. At the time many of my own ideas were still in a formative stage. But after reading Michael Hoffman’s book Usury in Christendom, it became obvious that an all-knowing super intelligent being informed us three and a half millennia ago that the only way to administer a financial system that will benefit all is without the usury."

Unforgettable revelations abound in this indispensable study of the rise of the Money Power. Usury in Christendom provides the reader with a detailed understanding of how a den of thieves robbed the followers of Christ of their patrimony. It is grounded in an extensive study of rare and primary sources and represents a landmark revisionist history of how the breeders of money gained dominion over the West.

For most of the first 1500 years of Christianity usury, the lending of money at interest, was unanimously condemned by the Fathers of the Early Church, and by popes, councils and saints, as a damnable sin equivalent to robbery and even murder. Any interest on loans of money, not just exorbitant interest, was defined de fide as a grave transgression against God and man.

Mr. Hoffman confronts the reader with a startling datum: the overthrow of magisterial dogma and the approval of scripture-twisting heresy occurred inside the Church centuries before the Enlightenment and the dawn of the modern era, culminating in the overthrow of divine truth; an epochal act of nullification. Usury in Christendom: The Mortal Sin that Was and Now is Not resurrects the suppressed biblical, patristic and medieval Catholic doctrine on interest on money, provides new information on the record of early Protestant resistance to the usury revolution, and the discernment, by Dante and other visionaries, of the sub-rosa connection between usury and a host of abominations that continue to plague us today. Western civilization was profoundly disfigured by the ecclesiastic exculpation of the charging of interest on debt. The result has been a pursuit of usurious profit unconstrained by the Word of God, the dogma of His true Church, and the consensus patrum of fifteen centuries.

This revisionist history of how a den of thieves robbed the followers of Christ of their patrimony is grounded in an extensive study of rare and primary sources, and represents a landmark reassessment of how the breeders of money gained dominion over the West.

Antiquarian and Rare Books

For Sale:

The magnificent First Edition of

Michael Hoffman's

The Occult Renaissance Church of Rome

Your choice:

Autographed

Sealed in the printer's original shrink-wrap

Just a few copies left of the first edition of 3,000, printed in 2017, very few of which were autographed; perhaps no more than 50. This is a rare book.

The first edition is the only printing of this volume with the magnificent gloss plates, defined as:

"Book plates are...illustrations, pictures, or photographs that are printed separately from the text of the book, but they are bound in during production. Platings add color, texture, and value to books, and they are often gorgeous and riveting. For certain titles, plates are only included in first editions or deluxe editions..." [Source: Biblio.com]

The "plates" (illustrations) in the first edition were beautifully printed on heavy gloss paper by one of America's premier academic printers.

The 42 illustrations in The Occult Renaissance Church of Rome are particularly important because they are integral to the author's thesis with regard to occult extremism under religious auspices. These are best viewed and examined on gloss paper with a color process which renders both the black and white and the color illustrations in a manner that more closely approximates how they appear in actuality, with many details sharply highlighted.

Here below are samples of both the color and the black and white "plates." Keep in mind that their reproduction on this blog do not do them justice. They are much sharper in the book itself and are reproduced here only to give you an idea of the first edition's photographic treasures.

New, mint condition

Softcover. 723 pages. 6 inches by 9 inches. 2 lbs.

1599 Geneva Bible

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Hoffman) — Sun, 17 Dec 2023 20:00:00 +0000

Antiquarian and Rare Books

For Sale:

1599 Geneva Bible

This is an original "1599 imprinted at London by the deputies of Christopher Barker” Geneva Bible. In spite of the preceding printer’s statement on the title page - and this is where it gets interesting - this Geneva Bible was actually printed in Amsterdam (in English, of course) around the year 1633, probably by J.F. Stam (John Fredericksz Stam) and Thomas Craffurt (a.ka. “Crafoorth”; 473 in Herbert*).

This is one of the “Puritanical printings” without the Apocrypha. Some of the so-called “Puritanical printings” of the Geneva Bible (for Puritans in the low countries), began to omit the Apocrypha, while other editions retained them. The Geneva Bibles were printed without the Apocrypha in a covert arrangement with the partners and heirs (“deputies”) of Christopher Barker, who died in 1599.

It is a singular fact of the bibliographic record that Geneva Bibles published in the region of the Netherlands in the 17th century, bore the date “1599” and gave the place of publication as “London.” These printings are what the uninitiated term “black market editions” (unless the edition is a Herbert 247, one of the very few "Imprinted at London...1599" that actually were published in that time and place).

1599 is the year that “pirated” Bibles attributed to Christopher Barker's deputies in London, were first printed in Amsterdam for expatriate Puritans. The 1599 date would be affixed to Geneva Bibles published in Amsterdam as late as the 1640s.

I have qualified the terms “black market” and “pirated” in the preceding references to this traffic, because in my opinion this was officially sponsored pseudo-piracy; likely a false flag operation made possible by the pact between Dutch printers and the Crown's royal printing company in London (“the deputies of Christopher Barker”), whose mission it was to keep the fact of royal sponsorship of a Bible suddenly appearing without fourteen of its books (Apocrypha), unknown to the world at large. The title page reads: “Imprinted at London by the Deputies of Christopher Barker, 1599.” In fact, it was not, as noted above.

Dodd's Own Bible?

Rarity: Besides its age, the provenance of this Bible makes it rare, as does the fact that may have been owned by William Dodd. The first page of the Bible is signed: Rev'd. Dr. Dodd.

Click on the photograph to enlarge it

Our search of 18th century British biography revealed only one cleric by that name. Here is his biography:

On June 27, 1777, the Reverend William Dodd (born 1729), “the Macaroni Parson,” Master of Arts and Doctor of Laws in the University of Cambridge; first Grand Chaplain of Modern English Freemasonry and sometime chaplain to King George III; Chaplain of Magdalen House, a “Public Place of Reception for Penitent Prostitutes”; proprietor of the Charlotte Street Chapel, and a principal sponsor of such other charities as the Society for the Release of Debtor, was hanged at Tyburn for forging the signature of his patron and former pupil, Philip Stanhope, fifth earl of Chesterfield, on a bond for £4,200.

The hanging of Dr. Dodd

Dodd's trial, condemnation, and execution occurred despite massive efforts to procure a mitigation of the law's severity led by his friend, the literary giant Samuel Johnson.

Dodd was the author of The Beauties of Shakespeare (1752). "This was the first and probably most influential of all Shakespearian anthologies, Lamb's Tales included. In its numerous subsequent editions, deluxe...and otherwise, it quickly became and remained a best-seller on both sides of the Atlantic...its conveniently arranged passages, arranged under such archetypes as "Hope," "Repentance," "Honor more Dear than Life," or "Punctuality in Bargains," probably did more than any other single agent to establish the actual parameters of the conventional Shakespearian canon and make it 'part of an Englishman's constitution.'

"Dodd indeed moved in Wilkite circles, and like (the radical) John Wilkes, he was drawn to Freemasonry, of which he became an enthusiastic advocate. Just over a year before his execution, and shortly before his troubles began, he had preached as Grand Chaplain of the Lodge of All England at the inauguration of the new Freemason's Hall in Long Acre, which was dedicated on May 23, 1776, with musical solemnities and oratorical pageantry on a scale which foreshadowed the great Handel commemoration of 1784 in Westminster Abbey.

"Dodd was a masonic enthusiast and publicist who occupied a position of Grand rank explicitly created to mark the dedication of the order's first permanent headquarters....Besides the simple fact that Dodd and Freemasonry seemed so made for each other that they were bound to rise or fall together, however, there were other circumstances which complicated the link between their fortunes...

"Dodd's execution was widely regarded, not as the condign exemplary punishment of a scoundrel but as the unmerited suffering of a victim more sinned against than sinning who had been heartlessly sacrificed to the letter, not the spirit, of the law after a trial which turned on a confession obtained by trickery and on evidence obtained by highly improper means.

"In severe financial difficulty after years of raising cash on annuities, Dodd had induced Lewis Robertson, a broker, to procure funds on Chesterfield's purported bond by posing as the earl’s confidential agent. Robertson had negotiated with a Mr. Fletcher in the bank of Sir Charles Raymond. Fletcher and another partner signed on behalf of the bank. Robertson had doubts. Anxious not to lose his commission, however, he eventually countersigned when Dodd hinted that further enquiry would offend the earl and end the transaction. A blot on the bond, however, caused Fletcher's solicitor Manly, to get it re-executed by the earl. This gave the game away.

Rev. Dr. William Dodd, chaplain to King George III

"Confronted by Manly, Dodd confessed, protesting that he had always intended to repay as soon as his temporary difficulties were over and before the earl even knew. He denied any intention to defraud, declared Robertson's innocence, repaid most of the bond at once gave security for the balance. He passed up an opportunity to burn the evidence when Manly left him alone with it. Assured that the matter would be laid to rest, he also let Manly leave his house with the incriminating paper still intact.

"The following day, Manly swore an information for forgery before Sir Thomas Hallifax, the Lord Mayor and a prominent anti-Wilkite. Robertson was also charged as accomplice. To begin with, Chesterfield was reluctant to prosecute but he bowed to the arguments of Hallifax and Manly, who was anxious that his own client, Fletcher, should not bear the cost alone. A joint prosecution by Chesterfield and Fletcher was therefore entered. Neither showed much enthusiasm, however, and though newspaper speculation pointed to Sir Charles Raymond as the real driving force behind the case, it seemed unlikely that it would ever come to trial.

"Previous forgery trials had indicated considerable public sympathy for defendants in such cases. Moreover the crucial prosecution witness, Robertson, could not give evidence since he had also been arrested and charged. The defense argument—that there had been no malicious intent, that the money had been returned and securities given, and that the bond, now legally "blank," was being improperly held, either by Hallifax or by Manly, seemed strong enough to persuade the Middlesex Grand Jury to dismiss the charge.

"All this was changed, however, by Manly, who improperly secured Robertson's release by means of a falsely procured pass, thereby enabling him to testify against Dodd before the Grand Jury and giving him little choice but to do so in order to clear his own name. Without actually doing anything himself, in fact, Robertson had "been turned" king's evidence, not by any court, but by a trick played on an unsuspecting jailer by the prosecution's solicitor. Dodd was committed, and the critical question of the admissability of Robertson's evidence was left to be determined at the trial itself.

"To most lay opinion it still seemed that natural justice was entirely on Dodd's side. He had meant no harm, only to "borrow" the money for a short time. He had confessed, had redeemed the bond at once, and had not destroyed it when an opportunity to do so presented itself, only to be thrown off his guard by the assurances of designing men. Robertson's evidence had been illegally obtained; previous cases had been thrown out for less, and rumors were now beginning to circulate about Robertson's complicity in a deep conspiracy with Fletcher and his fellow bankers to frame both Chesterfield and his tutor.

"...On the ground that whatever they had done about Robertson, the Grand Jury had found a true bill against Dodd, the trial proceeded... Dodd had acted according to the manners of the time, whose he came to epitomize. This was particularly so with regard to the use and abuse of credit....Not only was Dodd a debtor himself; more important, he was conspicuously interested in the general problem. He preached on it in his own chapels in Pimlico and Bloomsbury; he supported the Thatched House Society, the principal existing debtors' charity; in 1772, he founded his own Society for the Relief and Discharge of Persons Imprisoned for Small Debts. He even tried to float a scheme for "the Loan of Money without Interest to Industrious Tradesmen.'...his own relief organization, which later became the Discharged Prisoners' Aid Society, freed over 3,200 victims during its first five years.

"...In some respects, the image of Dodd, benevolent, all too human, and martyred by the rigor of the law and the manners of the age, coincided with this. True, he had, in a moment of weakness and need, misappropriated the name of his patron. But if a noble name still carried with it some residual expectations of Good Lordship toward those who wore its livery, it might be plausibly argued borrowing was a venial breach of etiquette, not a premeditated crime, especially if noble patrons expected their inferiors to go on writing off their own notorious reluctance to pay their bills as a business. Besides, the merits of such a good and useful man should have been properly recognized and rewarded long before to such extremities."

If we knew for a fact that this was the personal Bible of William Dodd and autographed by him we would be asking ten times the price we are asking now. However, without a handwriting expert to verify the signature, William Dodd's ownership and autograph remain unverified. Let the buyer beware: we make no claim that this was his Bible, or is that it bears his autograph.

This rare, approximately 380-year-old Geneva Bible is in good condition for its age. All pages are present though there are some defects (see photos below). It was rebound in leather at some point, my guess is in the 18th or early 19th century. There is quill-pen handwriting on blank endpages front and back, including the aforementioned Dodd signature (which appears to be in a different hand from the one that listed the registry of births in the back of the Bible) None of this handwriting appears on any page of the Bible text itself which we checked (we did turn over every leaf). Some of the margin notes along the edge of some pages were trimmed off during the rebinding. There is also a small hole about one inch in diameter on one page.

7 inches by 9 inches. 2 lbs. 11 ozs. (All weights and dimensions are approximate).

IMPORTANT NOTE: Title page [above] -- this page photographed black on white on our cell phone camera, but it is actually age-tanned as are all the pages of this Bible. They all exhibit yellowing/browning from age, as seen in the next two photos, even when the photos look black and white.

This handwriting on the back page appears to be different from the hand-writing at the front of the Bible where "Rev. Dr. Dodd" is signed. The hand-writing on the page above appears to be from the 19th century.

This is the last page. If you click on the photo to enlarge it you can see where the text is starting to separate from the spine. All of the pages of this Bible remain bound to the spine but in cases like this one the fragile state of the binding is evident.

Many pages are dog-eared as shown in this photo above (what appears to be possible fire-damage is not -- the darkened area is darkened only from age and use).

This torn page is the only one we found. (We did not search every page of this Bible).

This partially missing page is the only one we found. (We did not search every page of this Bible).

The Theology of Israeli War Crimes

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Hoffman) — Wed, 08 Nov 2023 15:59:00 +0000

The Theology of Israeli War Crimes
Listen here:

https://share.transistor.fm/s/1a3b0418

In this podcast Michael Hoffman, author of the banned textbook Judaism Discovered (1,102 pages), studies hate speech in the Talmud and derivative halachic texts, and their real world consequences for Arab civilians in Lebanon and Palestine. Hoffman’s empirical evidence is conveyed with compassion and charity for both Jews and gentiles.

Hate speech in the Talmud is not a “canard” or an “anti-Semitic trope.” To achieve peace and justice all hate speech must be repudiated, not just certain politicized categories. To safeguard civilians in occupied Palestine and the Middle East, and for the advancement of human rights and knowledge in defiance of cancel culture, the influence and impact of Talmudic theology on the Israeli government, military and the settlers must become known and challenged by all people of good will. In studying Israeli violence, confining the analysis mainly to “settler-colonialism” seriously limits authentic understanding of the roots of the racist, ethno-supremacist forces at work.

It is 110 minutes in length which many people with attention spans damaged by frequent viewing of high speed video imagery, will find difficult to sustain, in which case those folks should listen in 15 or 20 minute segments, or whatever their powers of concentration can sustain.

The first part consists of a lapidary deconstruction of the claims of Talmudism to being Biblical. Fom there Michael proceeds to debunk the most popular, media-disseminated myths about Talmudism. Part two is a study of the connection between the Talmud of Babylon (and its sacred successor texts), and the real world harm to Palestinian civilians we are witnessing now. American “Conservatives" will have none of this because they have turned a blind eye toward the reality of hate speech in the Talmud and its malicious influence on the Israelis, while Leftists, as noted, tend to confine themselves to an analysis of Israeli war crimes almost exclusively in connection with “settler colonialism.” In both cases the Talmud is the missing key to understanding.

We hope you will not only listen to the podcast in its entirety — a study based on decades of research — but also help to publicize it as far as you can.

Mr. Hoffman’s work is made possible by the grace of God and the sale of his books, newsletters and recordings, as well as donations from truth-seekers.

The research is hate-free and offers charity and compassion toward Jews and gentiles alike. The advancement of knowledge is not "anti" anyone. Free speech campaigners should note that Michael's books on this subject are banned:

https://www.revisionisthistory.org/page8/page8.html

The unfortunate truth about hate speech in the Talmud, which the gatekeepers have concealed, is needed more than ever in the struggle contra Zionist racism and bigotry. Study and disseminate the suppressed scholarship in this podcast.

This is the information desperately needed to obtain a breakthrough in educating for peace between all people of good will, and preventing more massacres of the Palestinian.

The Cryptocracy’s Covert Stratagem for the Destruction of the Jewish People

The Secret Iniquity of Aryan Occultism

https://michaelhoffman.substack.com/p/the-disaster-of-israeli-zionism-the

EXCERPT:

...From Tokyo to Dresden, from Beirut ‘82 to Gaza ’09 and ‘14, Allied and Israeli war crimes have been consigned to the lowest region of the Memory Hole. For the denizens of the United States of Amnesia, for whom recalling the identity of who’s buried in Grant’s Tomb is a tall order, mass murder committed by “The Allies,” doesn’t register. Arab terrorists — now there’s a meme they can wrap their heads around.

It may be necessary to think of revisionist history as an antidote to the coercive artifice of our media-saturated universe, wherein Andrew Roberts, Churchill’s hagiographer, along with the sad wreck of a man by the name of General David Petraeus, late of Afghanistan, the CIA and his mistress’s boudoir—to whom he surrendered the top secrets of the US government in exchange for her charms—condescend to explain to the rubes the extraordinary nobility of the Israeli military.

In the Wall Street Journal of October 14 (p. C4), in the midst of the Israeli slaughter of hundreds of children in Gaza and the deliberate bombing of hospitals and apartment blocks, these macabre comedians wrote:

“Sending ground forces into Gaza…as Israel has every right to do, will inevitably result in substantial Palestinian civilian casualties…But however enormous the challenge, Israel must maintain its long-standing commitment to its ethical code of the ‘purity of arms’…

“Moreover, as major urban combat operations begin, the residents of Gaza—and the West Bank too—need and deserve a way forward. They must be told not only what Israel’s military objectives are but what sort of future they and their children can expect after the war. As the U.S. was reminded in the wake of capturing Baghdad and toppling the regime of Saddam Hussein, considerable thought and planning need to be devoted to the post-conflict phase…”

Israelis have “every right” to kill Palestinian civilians, and after they “inevitably” do so as a result of their “purity of arms,” the good-hearted Petraeus and Roberts solicit concern for the future of the survivors of the massacre. They conclude their clueless “expert viewpoint” by citing Mr. Bush’s Iraq war as a model of how the Israelis should comport themselves, given that “considerable thought and planning” was “devoted to the post-conflict phase of the “capture” of the city of Baghdad.

Our most sardonic grin is reserved for their allusion to the Israeli military’s “purity of arms,” This is Orwellian hype from the Ministry of Truth in Jerusalem, fed like pabulum to doofuses in the media, along with that other tissue of absurdity, the Israeli killers in uniform hailed as “the most moral army in the world.” Is there anyone above the age of five who believes this? Yes, kindergarten is still in session in the U.S., where deceit is laughably diaphanous…

Did Europeans Steal America from the Indians?

BOOK REVIEW

Not Stolen: The Truth about European Colonialism in the New World

By Jeff Flynn-Paul (Bombardier Books, 2023). Softcover, 397 pp.

Reviewed by Michael Hoffman

Not Stolen is a unique, though embryonic, defense of the European-American enterprise of discovery and settlement. It is not an academic book. It is intended as a popular work for the masses. Its thesis is correct: generally speaking with some exceptions, indigenous Americans were not above ritually torturing, murdering, kidnapping, brutally enslaving and even eating their fellow Natives in rival tribes.

The notion that Ithaca, New York’s Cornell University (and a hundred other institutions of higher learning equally contested), is situated on land “stolen from Native people” is a hoax, given that in the case of Ithaca, the Iroquois themselves expropriated the land from other tribes.

The benighted omission of the history of Native American civil wars is the foundation upon which the cries for Cornell to be “returned” to the Iroquois (to cite one instance), are put forth. Lost in the folds of dainty political correctness are the facts of the ferocious inter-tribal warfare of the Natives...

An essay and analysis by Michael Hoffman

Excerpt:

Two Examples of Iron Fist Revolutionary Brutalism

I. Merrick Garland’s Department of Justice sent an FBI SWAT team to the home of a pro-life Catholic because he shoved a threatening pro-abortionist away from his young son. Meanwhile militant abortion terrorists have firebombed multiple Christian pregnancy counseling centers with near impunity (almost no arrests).

II. There have been 81 violent attacks on pro-life crisis pregnancy centers, and 130 attacks on Catholic churches, but only two persons have been charged. Since the leak of the Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, no domestic terrorist group has been more vocal and active in violently attacking pro-life individuals and institutions than the “Jane’s Revenge” gang. They have taken responsibility for numerous attacks, including firebombings and acts of vandalism. The same group has now issued a letter declaring “open season” on all so-called “anti-choice” groups, calling for terrorist attacks against these groups by anyone “with the urge to paint, to burn, to cut, [or] to jam.”

Christian Nationalism: Blessing or Menace?

American Independence in the Light of Christ

Book Review

Douglas Wilson, Mere Christendom

Canon Press, 2023; 257 pages; hardcover

Reviewed by Michael Hoffman

"...I could assess Mere Christendom as an invaluable practical manual and leave it at that, but it would be damning it with faint praise. There are exegetical depths from which any Christian, intellectual or not, will derive much profit, and despite its flaws, this work is probably the most useful account extant of why and how America should be resuscitated through faith in Jesus, while deflating the Handmaid’s Tale hysteria that attaches itself to all serious campaigns to revive our Christian heritage. .."

Presbyterian School Mass Murder and America’s Disintegrating Soul

noreply@blogger.com (Michael Hoffman) — Wed, 29 Mar 2023 15:55:00 +0000

The Presbyterian School Mass Murder and America’s Inchoate and Disintegrating Soul

By Douglas Wilson | March 29, 2023

https://dougwils.com/books-and-culture/s7-engaging-the-culture/that-acrid-taste-of-damnation.html

There was a time, back in the olden days, when the aftermath of a horrific event like a school shooting was crowded with politicians making dubious policy pronouncements about things like gun control. Always in poor taste, they were usually on the case within hours, and yet, however bad they were, it was nothing compared to what we do now.

Back then, when terrible murders happened, the instantaneous debates about murder weapons were in bad taste, but at least most people could see a connection. That is why the camera hogs could usually get away with it.

But we are way beyond that. Speaking out in terrible taste now seems like the good old days to us.

Tennessee had recently outlawed trans-surgery on minors, and so the hot takes after the Nashville shootings were running along the lines of “straight Tennessee had it coming.” This is not politics anymore—this is something else entirely.This is not a misguided political vision. It is a warp spasm of wickedness.

This is what damnation tastes like. It is not the full damnation itself, but rather just one drop from the bottle, applied to the tip of the tongue. That acrid taste seems like it could never go away, and yet there is a full bottle of it left. There will always be a full bottle left.

It tastes like spitting loss, biting regret, venomous hatred, curdled resentment, dishonest blame-shifting, and devouring lust, and all of it curved back on itself. To use Augustine’s phrase—incurvatus in se—it is like a snake biting its tail. Actually, it is not like a snake biting its tail; it is a snake biting its tail.

Instead of the soul turned outward toward God, the twisted soul bends back in upon itself. The idea is to believe in oneself, to reach deep down within one’s own heart, and there to discover a treasury of infinite riches. So goes the lie.

But what we have discovered instead is that we have become a vacuous people with hollow souls, empty minds, and grasping hands.

Thinking ourselves to be urbane sophisticates, cosmopolitan, savvy in the ways of the world, we have discovered instead that the human souls that we once had are coming apart in our hands. They are in tatters, and pieces are all over the floor. When we try to pick up one piece, we drop other pieces, and all of them continue to tear and come apart.

Not only so, but just as we buy our jeans pre-ripped these days, so also we try to treat our souls the same way—we try to introduce the artificial destruction early on. Christian parents send their fresh little girls off to a government school so that some bureaucratic flunky can start grooming her into taking hormone blockers, and then cutting off her breasts.

If you are reading this, and you are one of those who has been surgically torn apart by such lies, and you are still miserable, that misery has to do with your relationship to the God you are still rejecting. Your misery has nothing to do with the fact that some people in the red states disapprove of what you have done.

They cut off your breasts in San Francisco, and you are not spiritually empty because somebody in Tulsa disapproves. You feel spiritually empty because you are spiritually empty, and Oklahoma has little or nothing to do with it.

Not only so, but the surgeon who did this awful thing to you is spiritually empty as well, and the medical profession certified him is as hollow as a jug. Looking to them for answers is like drinking from the dry and broken cisterns of ancient Israel, the ones that were dry in Jeremiah’s day.

Definitions in Free Fall

We are not to be faulted because we are a society with mentally disturbed people in it. We live in a fallen world, and every society has had mentally disturbed people in it, not to mention certain other people so given over to sin that we call them monsters or sociopaths.

Our current problem is not with those disturbed people, but rather with all the responsible people who are no longer capable of defining anything, including what it means to be disturbed. Every society has had insane people in it. Our problem today is that our sane people are insane. Our sane people no longer know what sanity is.

When asked to define a woman, Ketanji Brown Jackson famously replied that she “was not a biologist.” Now she was not being interviewed to determine whether she might be eligible for early release from an asylum, but was rather being questioned in Congress because she had been nominated to the Supreme Court of the United States.

She was nominated to a position of extraordinarily high responsibility, and she was sworn in despite the unbelievable lameness of that answer. And a society that appoints people like that to the highest court in the land is a society that deserves everything it is going to get—good and hard.

Please allow me to walk you through this. Someone who doesn’t know what a woman is has to be someone who also doesn’t know what a girl is. And if someone doesn’t know what a girl is, such a person also doesn’t know what boys and girls are. If they don’t know what boys and girls are, this means they don’t know what the image of God in man is—because the Word defines that image for us. “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” (Genesis 1:27). God created us in His image, male and female. Someone who doesn’t understand that doesn’t know what a human being is.

So why is the image of God in humanity so important? “Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.” Genesis 9:6 (KJV)

And so this is why we currently live in a society that doesn’t know what murder is. The people who said that straight Tennessee had it coming are people who don’t know what a girl is, and so they also must not know what it is to murder a girl. They don’t know what it is to murder a girl because they are “not biologists”…

Banksters and Gangsters in Capitalist America

Failing Banks and Rising Usury Rates in Biblical Focus

The Right wing sanctifies Capitalism while damning challenges to it as “Socialism.” The debate is rigged because it has been framed falsely. Scripturally, the war is not between Capitalism and Socialism but between Mammonism and Biblically-faithful free enterprise.
