Sermon Outlines On Salvation, Faith, Baptism, Repentance, Confession

The Wonders Of Calvary is a seven part series on the unusual signs and miracles that surrounded Jesus during His betrayal, arrest, trial and crucifixion. These are rarely discussed in the commentaries and few have preached about them from this perspective. The author considers the angelic visitation, the mob being thrown to the ground, the torn Temple veil, the earthquake and three other wonders. An excellent series for emphasizing the facts of the Gospel and presenting evidences in favor of Jesus of Nazareth as the Son of God

The Privilege of Obedience. Obedience is "driven" by two things: faith and love (I John 5:1–4). Faith settles all the questions we have about authority, necessity and purpose. Love settles all questions arising over opinion or preference. Faith and love overcome objections of boredom, weariness or burdensomeness (cf. Genesis 29:20; John 14:15, 23).

We will never motivate one another or the unbeliever with continual harangues about "duty" apart from the proper motivation that must rest upon faith and love. I am persuaded that the problem men have with serving the Lord is not so much ignorance about what they must do as it is them finding in their hearts the motivation to do it. It is not that they do not know they should, it is that they aren't concerned that they don't. How shall we deal with that reality?

The Reality and Necessity of Grace. This lesson gives a good explanation of "grace," and explains that the definition of the word is more than the simple "unmerited favor" explanation given by many preachers. The lesson goes on to demonstrate the necessity of grace in our lives

The Relationship of Grace to Law. Some have erroneously argued that grace and law are mutually exclusive, i.e., if you have one you cannot have the other. This lesson gives an excellent explanation of "justification," based upon Paul's teaching in the Roman letter


Salvation by Grace. This lesson points out that numerous factors are involved in our salvation, including faith, repentance, confess, the blood of Christ, the gospel, grace and baptism. A good portion of this lesson is spent showing how the Ephesians were "saved by grace" as they obeyed the gospel that Paul had preached unto them

Reconciliation. Sin separated man from God. Alienated from Him, if man were ever going to be in fellowship with God, reconciliation would have to take place. This lesson considers reconciliation to God by examining what 2 Corinthians 5:18-21 reveals about it

The Conversion Of The Multitudes. This outline is a study of the conversions of multitudes of men and women in the early days of Christianity following the establishment of the Church on Pentecost. The numbers of converted went from a thousands, to ten thousands, to innumerable multitudes in just a short while. Why and how were so many converted? This lesson answers that question

The What And How Of Conversion. Conversion is arguably one of the most important subjects of Scripture when considered from the perspective of man’s needs. Jesus said, “Unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter into the kingdom of heaven.” This sermon addresses this need in a straightforward and persuasive way intended to show men what conversion is and how it is accomplished

The Conversion Of The 5,000. The second recorded sermon of Peter which resulted in the conversion of above five thousand men, and that in the face of severe public opposition. This lesson examines the details of the conversion process and the kind of preaching that will effect conversion today

The Blood Of The Cross. This lesson explains the significance of the expression “the blood of his cross” in Colossians 1:20 and emphasizes the necessity of the death of Christ for the remission of the sins of the whole world

The Garden Tomb. The evidence for the resurrection of Jesus from the dead is strong and credible. This lesson approaches that evidence from the perspective of the empty tomb challenging and answering the ridiculous theories that have been offered by unbelievers and skeptics as an explanation for the missing body of Jesus of Nazareth on the third day after his crucifixion at Calvary

The Conversion Of The 3,000. This lesson is a study of Acts chapter two emphasizing the details of the conversion of the 3,000 on Pentecost. They were the very first people who ever heard the gospel and became Christians. If there are any Christians in the world today, we would expect them to emulate the "original" Christians. Thus, we study their conversion with a view to comparing them to those today that claim conversion to Christ or preach how men ought to be converted

The Believer's Assurance. We should never be reluctant to talk about being "saved" or "born again" when people obey the gospel of Christ. Just because the Pentecostals and other Charismatics do not understand conversion is no reason to fear using Bible language to discuss a Bible truth. Similarly, we tend to be over-cautious when answering our neighbors who believe in "once saved always saved" when they ask, "Are you saved?" We dig our toe in the ground and say "I hope I'm saved" as if we are talking about the weather or our favorite sports team that is in last place. Just because denominational people do not understand and abuse "salvation," I am not ready to give up scriptural terms. Neither am I ready to accept the doubts others have about my salvation because they do not understand the grace of God. For these reasons it is appropriate that we discuss the assurance that the believer has in Christ

Glorying In The Cross. What does it mean to glory in the cross? This lesson puts Galatians 6:14 in its proper context in order to make a modern application to all men in order to persuade them of their need for the salvation which is only through the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ

.

The Offense Of The Cross. In this sermon, Paul’s statement in Galatians 5:11 is examined. What was the offense of the cross and what was necessary to cause it to cease? Does this offense continue today, if so what is our duty in the matter?

The New Birth. This sermon shows in detail exactly what is involved in being born again by analyzing John 3:1-7 and other pertinent passages

"What Time Is It?" Since the Bible devotes a great deal of attention to the subject of time, this lesson asks the question, "What time is it?" and then looks to see how the Bible responds

Why God Gave Man The Bible. This sermon explores some of the reasons God gave man the Bible placing particular emphasis on those which pertain to man's salvation

The Message Of The Cross. This sermon, based on 1 Corinthians 1:18, answers the who, what, when and where of our Lord's death on Calvary's hill

Evidence Of Pardon. With a text of Isaiah 55:7, this sermon explains what pardon is all about and how to obtain it

Salvation By Faith. The Bible teaches that we are saved by faith, but not faith alone. What else is required?

The Conversion Of Cornelius. A Roman Centurion obeyed the gospel of Christ and left an example of obedience for us to follow

THE CHARACTER OF PURE CHRISTIANITY

Editorial Note: John Wesley was impressed by the sketch of a "Perfect Christian" written by Clement of Alexandria about 200 A. D. In 1742 Wesley wrote such a sketch himself, called "The Character of a Methodist," using the words of Scripture to describe Christian perfection. Tom Kiser, pastor of Pure Life Church, Brooklyn, NY, has adapted Wesley's description using more contemporary language. This short document incorporates 93 biblical references.

A mature Christian is purified through and through as God pours out His love into his heart by the Holy Spirit, whom He gives him.

He loves the Lord his God with all his heart and with all his soul and with all his mind and with all his strength. God is the joy of his heart, and the desire of his soul; which is constantly crying out, Whom have I in heaven but you? And being with you, I desire nothing on earth. God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever!

He is therefore always happy in God. Christ has put in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life, which overflows his soul with peace and joy. Perfect love having now driven out fear, he is always joyful. He rejoices in the Lord always, even in God his Savior. He rejoices in the Father, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom he has now received reconciliation. Having experienced redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, he cannot help but rejoice whenever he looks back on the horrible pit out of which now he is delivered. He sees all his offenses are swept away like a cloud and his sins like the morning mist. He cannot help but rejoice, whenever he looks at his present condition; for he is justified freely, and has peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. He believes in the Son of God and so has this testimony in his heart that he is now a child of God. Because he is a son, God sends the Spirit of his Son into his heart, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father!" The Holy Spirit himself testifies with his spirit, that he is God's child. He rejoices also whenever he looks to the future, in hope of the glory that will be revealed in him. Yes, his joy is full and all his soul cries out, "Praise be to the God and Father of my Lord Jesus Christ! In His great mercy he has given me new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade, kept in heaven for me!"

Because he has this hope, he gives thanks in all circumstances. He knows constant thanksgiving is God's will for him in Christ Jesus. From God he cheerfully receives all, saying "The will of the Lord is good." Whether the Lord gives or takes away, he equally praises the name of the Lord for he has learned to be content whatever the circumstances. He knows what it is to be in need and what it is to have plenty. He has learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. Whether he is in ease or pain, sickness or health, life or death; he gives thanks to God who in all things works for the good of those who love him. Because every good and perfect gift is from above, so nothing but good can come from his heavenly Father, the Faithful Creator into whose hands he has wholly committed his body and soul. He is not anxious about anything, but casts all his anxiety on Him that cares for him. His soul rests on God in everything, after presenting his request to Him with thanksgiving.

He prays continually. God enables him always to pray and not give up. Not that he is always in the house of prayer; though he neglects no opportunity of being there. Neither is he always on his knees before the Lord his God. Nor is he always crying aloud to God or calling upon him in words, for often the Spirit intercedes for him with groans that words cannot express. True prayer is lifting up the heart to God. The constant disposition of his mind is, "Glorious ever-present Lord, unto you are my thoughts." At all times and in all places, his steadfast spirit rises to God. No person or thing hinders or interrupts. In solitude or company, in relaxation, business or conversation, his heart is ever with the Lord. Whether he lies down or rises up, in all his thoughts there is room for God. He continually walks with God, for his mind steadfastly trust Him and everywhere see Him that is invisible.

While he exercises his love to God, by praying continually, rejoicing always, and giving thanks in all circumstances, this commandment also is written in his heart; that whoever loves God must also love his brother. Divine love within inspires him to love his neighbor as himself. He loves everyone as his own soul, every child of the Father of the spirits of all mankind. That a man is not a personal friend, is no obstacle to his love. Neither is it a barrier to his love when he knows someone is the kind of person he disapproves of, one that repays hatred for his good-will, for he loves his enemies and the enemies of God, the ungrateful and wicked. If it is not in his power to do good to them that hate him, yet he does not refrain from praying for them, though they continue to reject his love, and still mistreat and persecute him.

He is pure in heart. The love of God has purified his heart from all revengeful passions, from envy, malice and hate, from every unkind temper or abusive desire. It has cleansed him from pride and arrogance of spirit which only breeds quarrels. He has now clothed himself with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. He bears with others and forgives whatever grievances he could have against someone, forgiving as the Lord forgave him. Positively all possible ground for contention on his part is gone, for no on can take from him what he desires, because he does not love the world nor anything in the world. Because the world has been crucified to him and he to the world; he is dead to all that is in the world, both to the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does.

The one purpose of his life is not to please himself but He who sent him. He has pure eyes [pure motives] and because his eyes are good, his whole body is full of light. Since the loving eye of his soul is continually focused upon God, his whole body is full of light and no part of it dark; completely lighted, as when the light of a lamp shines. God reigns alone. All that is in his soul is holiness to the Lord. There is not a motion in his heart, but is according to God's will. Every thought that arises points to Him and is obedient to Christ.

By this fruit you will recognize him: he loves God and consequently he obeys God's commandments. He obeys not just some, or most of them, but all, from the least to the greatest. He is not content to keep the whole law, and yet stumble in just one point; but keeps in all points his conscience clear before God and man. Whatever God has forbidden, he avoids; whatever God has instructed, he does; whether it is little or great, hard or easy, satisfying or stressful to the flesh. He runs in the path of God's commands, for He has set his heart free. It is his glory, his daily joyous prize, to do the will of God on earth, as it is done in heaven.

All the commandments of God he keeps and that with all his might. His obedience is in proportion to his love, the source from which it flows. Therefore, loving God with all his heart, he serves Him with all his strength. He continually offers his soul and body a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. Entirely and without reserve he devotes himself and all he has to God's glory. All the talents he has received he constantly uses according to his Master's will; every power and ability of his soul, every part of his body. In the past he offered them to sin as the instruments of wickedness. Now as one who has been brought from death to life, he offers the parts of his body to God as instruments of righteousness.

Whatever he does, it is all for the glory of God. In all his various activities, he not only intends this, but actually attains it. His business and recreation, as well as his prayers, all serve this great goal. Whether he sits at home or walks along the road, whether he lies down or gets up, he is promoting, in all he speaks or does, his life's purpose to bring glory to God. Whether he is dressing, working, or eating and drinking, it all tends to advance the glory of God. His one invariable rule is this, Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

The customs of the world do not hinder him in any degree for he runs with perseverance the race marked out for him. He knows that vice does not lose its nature when it becomes fashionable. He also remembers that each of us will give an account of himself to God. He cannot, therefore, follow the crowd in doing wrong. He cannot live in luxury every day or gratify the desires of the sinful nature. He cannot store up for himself treasures on earth any more than he can scoop fire into his lap. He cannot dress with gold or pearls or expensive clothes. He cannot join in or condone any entertainment that has evil tendencies. He cannot slander [speak against] his neighbor, any more than he can lie either for God or man. He cannot utter an unkind word about anyone, for love keeps watch over the door of his lips. He cannot speak careless words; no unwholesome talk ever comes out of his mouth. He avoids all that is not helpful for building others up, not of benefit to those who listen. But whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, this he thinks, speaks, and acts, making the teaching about God our Savior attractive.

Finally as he has opportunity he does good unto all people. He works in every possible way for the good of neighbors, strangers, friends and enemies. He not only cares for their bodies, by feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, and visiting those that are sick or in prison, but above all labors to do good to their souls with the strength God provides. He attempts to wake up those who sleep in spiritual death and bring them to the reconciling blood of Christ, so that being justified though faith, they may have peace with God. Those who have peace with God he labors to spur on toward love and good works. He will very gladly spend from them everything he has and expend himself as well, even to the point of being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of their faith, so that they may all attain to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

These are the marks of a mature Christian; of one inwardly and outwardly conformed to the will of God, as revealed in the Holy Bible. His soul is renewed in the image of its Creator, to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Having the mind of Christ, he walks as Jesus did. Reader, may God himself, the God of peace, purify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful and He will do it.

How to Invest in Bitcoin: A Beginner’s Guide

Bitcoin, the world’s first decentralized cryptocurrency, has transformed from a niche digital experiment into a mainstream investment asset. Whether you're looking to diversify your portfolio or explore digital assets, investing in Bitcoin can be rewarding—but it also comes with risks. This guide will walk you through the essential steps to investing in Bitcoin safely and effectively.

---

1. Understand Bitcoin Before Investing

Before diving in, it's crucial to understand what Bitcoin is and how it works. Bitcoin operates on a decentralized blockchain network, meaning it isn't controlled by any government or financial institution. Transactions are verified by a process called mining, which ensures security and transparency. Unlike traditional currencies, Bitcoin has a fixed supply of 21 million coins, making it a deflationary asset.

---

2. Choose a Secure Crypto Wallet

A crypto wallet is essential for storing your Bitcoin securely. There are two main types:

• Hot Wallets (Online & Mobile) – Convenient but more vulnerable to hacks. Examples: Trust Wallet, Exodus, MetaMask.

• Cold Wallets (Offline & Hardware) – Safer for long-term storage. Examples: Ledger Nano X, Trezor.

If you plan to trade frequently, a hot wallet may be suitable. However, for long-term holding (HODLing), a hardware wallet is the safest option.

Wallet Type	Pros	Cons
Hot Wallet	Easy access, free to use	Higher risk of hacking
Cold Wallet	Highly secure, ideal for long-term holding	Requires physical storage, initial cost

---

3. Select a Reliable Cryptocurrency Exchange

To buy Bitcoin, you need to use a cryptocurrency exchange. Here are some reputable platforms:

• Binance – Low fees, global availability.

• Coinbase – Beginner-friendly, regulated.

• Kraken – Strong security, multiple fiat options.

• eToro – Ideal for social trading.

Ensure that your chosen exchange supports your country and preferred payment methods.

Exchange	Best For	Key Features
Binance	Low fees	High liquidity, multiple cryptos
Coinbase	Beginners	Regulated, easy-to-use interface
Kraken	Security	Advanced trading options
eToro	Social trading	Copy-trading features

---

4. Set Up Your Account

• Sign up for an exchange account.

• Complete KYC (Know Your Customer) verification by providing identification.

• Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for extra security.

---

5. Deposit Funds

You need to fund your account before purchasing Bitcoin. Most exchanges allow deposits through:

• Bank transfers (ACH, SEPA, Wire Transfer)

• Credit/Debit Cards

• PayPal or Mobile Money (where supported)

Be mindful of deposit fees and processing times, which vary by exchange.

---

6. Buy Bitcoin (BTC)

Once your account is funded, go to the Buy/Sell section on the exchange and:

• Enter the amount of Bitcoin you want to buy.

• Choose a market order (buy instantly at the current price) or limit order (set your own price and wait for execution).

• Confirm the transaction.

Your Bitcoin will be credited to your exchange wallet.

---

7. Store Your Bitcoin Securely

If you're investing for the long term, transfer your Bitcoin to a secure wallet instead of keeping it on the exchange.

• For frequent trading: A software wallet (hot wallet) is fine.

• For long-term holding: A hardware wallet (cold storage) is recommended.

---

8. Monitor Your Investment

Bitcoin is highly volatile, so it’s essential to keep track of market trends using platforms like:

• CoinMarketCap – Live price updates.

• TradingView – Technical analysis and charting tools.

• Crypto News Outlets – Keep up with regulatory changes and adoption trends.

Additionally, be aware of historical Bitcoin crashes and rallies to understand market cycles better.

---

9. Choose a Strategy: HODL or Trade?

There are different ways to invest in Bitcoin, depending on your risk tolerance and goals:

• HODLing: Buy and hold Bitcoin for the long term.

• Swing Trading: Buy low, sell high based on market trends.

• Day Trading: High-risk, short-term trades based on price fluctuations.

HODLing is the safest strategy for beginners, while trading requires technical knowledge and experience.

---

10. Consider Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA)

Due to Bitcoin’s volatility, consider using a dollar-cost averaging (DCA) strategy. This involves investing a fixed amount of money at regular intervals (e.g., weekly or monthly), regardless of the current price. DCA can help smooth out the impact of price fluctuations and reduce the risk of buying at a peak.

---

11. Be Aware of Risks

• Volatility: Bitcoin’s price can rise or fall drastically.

• Security Risks: Use strong passwords and enable 2FA.

• Phishing Attacks: Be cautious of phishing scams that attempt to steal your login credentials or private keys. Always verify website URLs and never share your recovery phrase.

• Regulation & Taxes: Some countries regulate or tax Bitcoin. Consult a tax professional for specific advice in your jurisdiction.

• Exchange Hacks: Store only what you need on an exchange and withdraw the rest to a private wallet.

• Regulatory Uncertainty: Some governments may introduce new laws affecting Bitcoin investments.

---

12. Alternative Bitcoin Investment Options

If you want exposure to Bitcoin without directly buying and holding it, consider:

• Bitcoin ETFs – Exchange-traded funds that track Bitcoin’s price.

• Crypto Stocks – Companies like MicroStrategy and Coinbase have significant Bitcoin holdings.

• Bitcoin Mining – Earning Bitcoin by validating transactions, though it requires technical expertise and equipment.

---

13. Security Best Practices

• Double-check wallet addresses before sending funds, as Bitcoin transactions are irreversible.

• Use multi-signature wallets for added security, especially if managing large amounts of Bitcoin.

• Enable withdrawal whitelists on exchanges to limit where your Bitcoin can be sent.

• Consider cold storage solutions for added protection against hacks.

---

14. Disclaimer

This guide is for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Cryptocurrency investments carry risk, and you should conduct your own research or consult a financial advisor before investing.

---

Conclusion

Investing in Bitcoin can be profitable, but it requires careful planning, security measures, and a clear strategy. Start by learning the fundamentals, choose a reliable exchange and wallet, and always be mindful of market risks. Whether you decide to hold Bitcoin long-term or actively trade, making informed decisions is key to success in the crypto space.

Celebrities Under Heavy Influence/Control

I found this information from a 2007 thread in Above Top Secret. The entire thread can be found here: 

The following are excerpts are from a poster named General Eyes who had started “waking up” from his programming, and described some of the military training from his youth as well as experiences in the entertainment industry. It is a lengthy read, but full of valuable inside information into micro and macro mind control.

I did not edit the content. All spelling errors and typos are those of the posters.

This entire subject has been the object of much of my therapy throughout the past seven years, and I know exactly where you’re coming from.

The entertainment industry is far reaching, widespread and extremely competent in finding people/children who fit their requirements for any given point in time in regards to the manipulation of mass consciouness.

How do I know this? I’ve been ankle deep in it myself.

I’ll spare you the backstory, but I’ve been in a couple of movies as well as being a musical performer (sans agent or manager) and there are strict codes of conduct and professional requirements that are demanded upon by anyone on-set–not just the main performers.

The ability to dissoociate (i.e. “get into character”) as well as being completely aware of every subtle action and nuance the main character performs is the difference between a lead role and a bit part in the background. I’m a background walker (extra) with no dreams of becoming famous – I’ve seen how handlers keep the reigns tightened on the majority of low end performers.

Are the current trends in pop culture the result of a GOVERNMENT agenda via brainwashing? I can’t say for sure. I was born a military kid and had to go through the entire testing process myself to see if I was a viable canidate for life long indoctrination – oddly enough, I was found to be suitable although I’m still not sure what it is I do. But I digress…

In the entertainment world – yes – they are looking for people who will “lose themselves” in a role…do exactly what is demanded of them and not question anything. We are diluged with substandard “models” right now preaching elevated scripts of sexuality and consumption.

Try gettting a serious artist to bend their will to such an agenda.

These media mogels know what they’re doing, they know how to find “what they’re looking for” and they know how to surround that person with people who continue to keep the delusional world going on en force around the performer in order to keep the illusion going as long as possible, for a far as possible.

Alter-egos? Simple. The “artist” needs to change dynamics in order to stay sane and keep his/her name in the spotlight and generate new attention from his or her fans, or open up new media markets.

The simple line of thinking behind todays performers is : If the public has controlled and shallow role models, they themselves will become shallow and easily controlled through emulation of said role models.

This applies primarily to the younger gnerations.

It’s long, drawn out and complicated – and forgive me for just waking up – but seeing as how this is a subject of massive interest with me – I’ll check back ASAP.

_____________________________

My opinions on it aren’t really that conspiratorial, since I’ve grown up with it – I know no other way fo life and I have to assume the other people in this “program” (whatever sector they might be operating in) are of the same opinion.

We’re conditioned to this way of life, and it’s hard to imagine any other way of living for me…but fortunately I’m not triggered very often these days given that I’ve dropped out of that side of the whole reality.

The reason I’m not fighting this as strongly as I porbably should it it got to a point where I basically had to tell the handlers to kiss my royal white behind – the majority of my programming is military in nature, and it didn’t sit well with the rest of the Monarch Slaves I’ve run into.

Indeed – the majority of them have been spoiled, self righteous and indignant brats with egos the size of antarctica and an over inflated sense of superiority over others – it’s actually quite sad. But they DO need to be monitiored and “handled” almost constantly or else things get messy in the real world around them very quickly.

I admit – I know very little of Tavistock - but I’ll get right on it. Once again, I can only speak of personal experience and interaction with people who fit the catagory of “slaves” you’ve previously mentioned.

And please, don’t be paranoid – I’m not “after anyone” and I have no agenda.

_____________________________

Any subject is open and up for grabs here, but just try to understand I am recently coming to light with my own “role” in this whole thing, so I might not be able to clarify much in regards to what I do with my primary programming.

On the issue of the entertainment industry, however – you’re right, It is part of a social engineering program. Civilians get the second rate programming via theatre and television – but it’s there.

As far as the brainwashing part is concerned – it’s kind of a misnomer. These children are tested and selected based on natural aptitudes and talents at an early age – and then simply guided the rest of their lives. Not everyone makes it – and a lot of them with lesser morals fall prey to the pornogaphy divisions. Fortuantely for them, that whole branch is being given massive approval these days so it’s no longer a verbotten and “seedy” thing anymore – it’s actually cool and hip to be in that department.

I study psychology, sociology and social trends – and I do see where they are trying to head with this whole mess – a world where people can pursue their desires free of guilt and outdated concpets of moral code.

_____________________________

Maybe we shouldn’t be focusing so much on the performers themselves – after all, that’s what the industry wants.

We should be looking more into the values and ideals that are being sold to us via the mediums of these performers – therein lies the real agenda.

Is it sinsiter? Not really – but I can understand how it might come off that way to a person with any reasonable amount of self worth and intelligence…but iin all actuality, it’s just finding ways to profit off the basic drives of human beings and keep them entertained.

There are a lot of people out there with no imaginations whatsoever, and providing them with a media starlet or tough boy archetype gives them a “map” of exploring parts of their own psyche they may not have been able to give voice to without an in your face hint.

_____________________________

Well – I know at first glance it seems hopeless, but most people grow out of these things when they get a heavy dose of the real world. Teenagers get their yah yahs out and learn the hard way how the world works once they enter into the workforce.

I agree, I don’t necessarily agree with the souless consumer ideology – but the majorityof people who buy into these trends to begin with aren’t exactly the stuff world leaders are made of.

It’s a delicate balance of power and human realtions – most people aren’t interested in the deeper meanigns of life – they just want to have a good time and experience things that distract them from the reality of their boring and mundane lives. Nothing is preventing any of these people from looking at alternatives or pursuing other paths – but the amchine is designed and engineered to profit heavily off the major consumer demographic – teenagers with no real sense of identiy, reality or community accountablity.

It’s a short run lifestyle, and it eventually burns out after a decade or so.

_____________________________

The USAF gave me IQ tests, social relation tests (was I a leader or follower), personality asessments, motor skills and coordination, object relations, insight, memory evaluation….the whole run down. I was four years of age when I was officially tested so I can’t go into any intensive detail about them. This was in 1977 – shortly before we were stationed overseas for the first time.

I was found to have a photographic memory. I didn’t go through any of the “conventional training” you hear about in case studies or when people “come forward” with their survivor stories. It was pretty benign.

I’ve tried bringing the subject up with my now retired father, but he refuses to discuss the matter with me. Flat out refuses.

The only thing I can say for sure is that I have always been “on the outside” of normal social relationships with my peer groups. In fact, I got bullied a lot in public schools for spending too much time “observing” others. It made them uncomfortbale for some reason.

Only recently have I begun to experience the “darker side” of the whole thing – I’ve gone for days without sleeping because of being triggered by some outside stimulus (I still cannot identify what it is or how it works) and end up walking around my neighborhood on “patrol” of sorts.

Whatever it is, it triggers a soldier mentality with in me, I have no fear and a heightened awareness that I’m there to protect the public sectors. Don’t ask me why, I don’t know.

I’ve been picked up by law enforcement and cannot communicate to them why I’m out wandering the streets in the middle of the night like an idiot, in fact – I cannot speak at all when I’m being accessed.

If I were living on base, things would make a hell of a lot more sense to me – the public sector doctors usually just write me off as a psychotic and give me injections that completely throw me into darkness before I wake up in a mental hospital for evaluation.

The last time this happened was in January of last year, and amazingly enough – a lot of the night staff who was working at the facility turned out to have done their time in the military as well. We hit it off famously.

What am I? An observer. I gather information and I get accessed and apparently blab my head off when knocked up on these drugs, relaying everything I’ve seen, heard, etc. Most of it wouldn’t make sense to the standard civilian anyway – my “alter ego” is apparently a real anti-social jerk and very adamant about not realying information to anyone other than proper authorities. I’ve had to apologise to several doctors about my rude behavior when in this unconscious state.

They won’t tell me what I discuss, they won’t allow my sessions to be recorded. I have no idea what information they are accessing when I get triggered and called in – or WHY I’m called in.

Hope that helps.

From dr_strangecraft:

I’ve spent a good deal of time researching the claims about Monarch. And I’ll tell you, I don’t accept the hypothesis at face value. I don’t believe there is a “grand conspiracy.” But I do believe in a de facto one.

I’m calling it artificial selection.

Basically, if you’re an agent, whom do you want as talent? You want a simple celebrity; one who cares about fancy cars, and getting loaded, and who isn’t very good at figuring out the percentages in his/her contract. So Tinseltown actively selects the idiots to be the most aggressively promoted. A “smart” celebrity demands more of the profits, and so is less lucrative. They also tend to fire managers and labels, and turn down scripts, etc. Also, the most naive stars will be very young. And they are the ones with the “hot body,” that will appeal most to the base instincts of other teenagers. I bet it’s a lot easier to be, say, lindsay lohan’s agent that to represent Al Pacino, for instance. Pacino can get anybody, he can turn down scripts, he has a secure position as long as he’s sucking wind. Some poptart in hot pants is desperate to “make it” before her body begins to sag.

Then you have the parents. Which stars seem the most likely ones, to have been “monarched?” (Yes, I made that up). Well, let’s see, Beyoncee and Christina Aguilara have been mentioned, as well with Jacko. Now, all three of them were shamelessly warped by their greedy/crazy parents, who were obsessed with having a “child-star.” Watching Fantazia a few dozen times when you’re stoned isn’t going to eff you up anywhere NEAR what Mathew Knowles, Shelley Fidler, or Joseph Jackson would do, to get you in front of a camera.

Just like that skater chic that got bonked in the knees, these kid stars have literally NO LIFE outside the studio/stage/film set. Their parents and siblings are orgasmic over the thought of how much loot they stand to inherit/borrow/steal/manage, and that will MESS YOU UP. Never getting to play with other kids, or flirt in study hall, or hang out at the mall. Having to be a robot performer day in and day out will make you nuttier than Monarch could ever hope for.

And despite what y’all have posted, most members of the “entourage” are childhood friends and family, who are given jobs as menial retainers, like the peasants hovering around medieval royalty. They are controlling all right. But only by ladeling on the praise, slathering the star in worshipful adulation: “you look So-o hot. You’re a genius. Eveyone cares what you think. And you are so-o-o sweet, for someone who has such a hard life. You should go into politics.” After years and years of this, your average sheltered, pampered child-star, lost in a haze of booze, oxycontin, and m & m’s, will do whatever is whispered into their ears.

It isn’t a secret global hierarchy, though. There’s no central planning, like some kind of secret KGB program. No, this is more capitalistic; it’s more like a hand of the card game “sweat,” where you can see everyone’s card but your own, and the people with the biggest ego rise to the top, and make off with all the money.

It isn’t Satanic. But it is deplorable.

all the best.

Dr. Strangecraft – well said, and well put.

I agree 100%.

The phenomenon of the “Movie Mom” is so widespread these days – it’s easy to see why so many kids willing to do anything to get on the screen will be taken advantage of by producers, directors and the whole industry.

After all, they want those sorts of “actors” these days.

“Don’t question the material – just read your lines and get the movie made.”

Do not be overcome by fear and anxiety, Trust in Jesus

Be controlled by your fears or control your fears

There is a legend which says that there was a mouse who was very afraid of cats. She wished she could become a cat, her wish came true and she turned into a cat. Then she saw a dog and became afraid again and wished she were a dog. Her wish was granted and she turned into a dog. Then she saw a lion and she was terrified by his power and strength and wished she could become a lion so that she would not have to be terrified of the lion. Her wish was granted and she became a lion. Then she saw a man with a gun about to shoot her with his gun. You can imagine what happened next. She wished she could become a human and she did. But when she was sitting in her house she saw a mouse and she was scared of the mouse. The little mouse frightened her. To break the cycle of fear turn to Jesus.

                                                Openness

For years, a mother duck led her new family of ducklings to the same pond. It was a place of safety and beauty. However, one year she found it dry and empty. Nothing remained but dried mud.

Yet she persisted in bringing her babies down to the pond, where she would walk about with flapping wings, anxiously quacking and trying to get her brood to enter.

The ducklings, however, with their fresh instincts, heard the far-off rippling of the water in a new dam being built farther upstream. The little ducklings refused to enter the dried mudhole. Instead, they left their mother quacking beside her empty pond and set out to find new water.

The mother duck had a closed mind. She could not accept the reality that the water was gone. She chose not to live in the real world so she remained in her little world because it was familiar.

Like the little ducklings, we must remain open to a new future, open to new ideas, open to others, open to learning new things--no matter what our age and experience. To do so is to maintain a childlike faith in God.

                                    Footprints in the Sand

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.

Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.

In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.

Sometimes there were two sets of footprints,

other times there was one only.

This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life,

when I was suffering from anguish,

sorrow or defeat,

I could see only one set of footprints,

so I said to the Lord,

“You promised me Lord,

that if I followed you,

you would walk with me always.

But I have noticed that during the most trying periods of my life

there has only been one set of footprints in the sand.

Why, when I needed you most, have you not been there for me?”

The Lord replied,

“The years when you have seen only one set of footprints,

my child, is when I carried you.”

Lady Gaga Channels Alexander McQueen

Lady Gaga Channels Alexander McQueen and Mind Control

I’m guessing that most of you have already read on this site the many references of Lady Gaga to Monarch Programming. A picture from the latest issue Haper’s Bazaar Magazine, taken by Terry Richardson, contains yet another reference to it. For a complete description of Monarch programming, please read the article Origins and Techniques of Monarch Mind Control on Vigilant Citizen’s sister site Secret Arcana.

Monarch Programming suit

The “butterfly suit” is by Alexander McQueen, a fashion designer who’ve died tragically (and rather mysteriously) last year. His work could be the subject of an entire article as it was laced with occult and mind control themes. He was described by Pseudo-Occult Media as “the elite’s fashion designer”. Here are some examples of his symbolic works:

McQueen as the “white rabbit”, an important theme in Monarch mind control referring to Alice in Wonderland.

Mind Control-themed shoot for McQueen by Nick Knight, director of Gaga’s Born This Way (do you see the connections?). One eye missing, blank stare, brain has been meddled with.

About Lady Gaga’s “horns” and McQueen:

“First of all, they’re not prosthetics,” she said. “They’re my bones … They’ve always been inside of me, but I have been waiting for the right time to reveal to the universe who I truly am.” The singer said the ridges rise up when inspiration strikes – and that she’s not alone. “We all have these bones! They’re the light from inside of us.”

Interrogated more firmly, Gaga did admit the facial horns are part of a “performance-art piece”, with “body modification” being “part of the overarching analysis of Born This Way”. But she denied the use of any plastic surgery, and made no mention of subdermal implants. “I am an artist, and I have the ability and the free will to choose the way the world will envision me,” she said.

Gaga also claims that the late fashion designer Alexander McQueen is the composer of her latest single, released on 11 February. “Right after he died, I wrote Born This Way.” She was particularly struck when the release date for the song turned out to be the anniversary of McQueen’s death. “When I heard that, I knew: I didn’t even write the fucking song! He did!”

“I think he planned the whole thing,” she continued. “He’s up in heaven with fashion strings in his hands, marionetting away.”

Interesting choice of words.
