A New Religion — Wokeism
Wokeism is the new religion—a CANCEL CULTURE at the core guiding its modus operandi—that is disguised in its introduction and growth as compassion and justice. It is completely contrary to the Western World’s well known Judeo-Christian values and view of life itself which include reason, science, logic, and common sense. Race, gender identity, and sex are the basic “tools of opportunity” for creating division, cognitive dissonance, fear, weakness, and targeted change. Not only is Wokeism unable to be in the same room as the biblical worldview, it has no room whatsoever for even beginning conversation about options and alternatives to address issues.
Secularism — Condemned by the Wokes
Secularism— the disciplined separation of church and state— has to be condemned, tossed out, and dismantled according to the Wokes because it “failed the people” over recent decades. “Higher” ground demands a completely new religiosity that is power and control based. This religiosity is essential to carry out the utter dismantling/tearing down of a “corrupt” system based upon Judeo-Christian values that include mercy, forgiveness, and redemption.
A “Go Along to Get Along” Personal Paradigm
So, why do so many good people continue to conclude that a go along to get along personal paradigm remains the remedy for eventually reversing this slippery slope of morality that has been succeeding for decades in America? As it was with extreme liberalism before Wokeism, the destructive, self-centered, power and control hungry people behind this “new religion” will stop at nothing in the evil pursuit of their deceptive and deranged agenda to destroy our Constitutional Republic and the good people that make it function as intended by our Founding Fathers.
Wokeism is Permeating Our Churches
Many of our country’s representatives have characterized Wokeism as a trojan horse; unfortunately, one that has already permeated our great nation including our churches. Given Wokeism’s recent and accelerated success with their openly declared goals and objectives including the advocacy of big business and the buy-in of professional sports, we must rely on our personal relationships with the Holy Spirit as we work through our consciences for decision making and empowerment that comes with following God’s teachings.
Be sober and vigilant. Your opponent the devil is prowling
around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.
Resist him, steadfast in faith, knowing that your fellow believers
throughout the world undergo the same sufferings.
The New American Bible 1986
— 1 Peter 5; 8-9
Guided by The Holy Spirit
Keeping in mind—as we continuously build our relationships with The Holy Spirit—the lessons of life and the guidance for life that Jesus provided us when He was with humanity in the flesh always perfectly and simultaneously human and Divine, let us work tirelessly to defeat all Satanic behavior with personal conscience fully informed and empowered:
1. Do we fully and completely understand blasphemy of The Holy Spirit, the unforgiven sin?
2. Is our conscience split in any way by our disintegrated words and actions?
3. Do we fully understand the personal pain generation of a split conscience?
4. Do we know how to avoid split conscience?
5. Do we fully understand the evil correlations between abortion and child/young people abuse?
6. Do we fully understand that homosexuality and transgenderism lead to atheism?
7. Do we fully understand how a split conscience can lead to a branded/seared conscience?
8. Do we fully understand that pro-choice equals the “sole proprietorships” of conscience?
9. Do we fully understand who is the “King” of personal conscience? Are we preempting and/or blaspheming The Holy Spirit?
10. Do we take the road away from hypocrisy when confronted with demanding truths and remain a temple of God?
