Pop Culture Inspired by Satan?

I've come across a website that has horrified and disturbed both my wife and I. It's not an ungodly website, but in fact, a very godly one. It is an expose on pop culture movies and bands. You will see how Satan has worked and advanced his agenda in the popular culture, and through many people you love and appreciate, and in some cases, nearly worship (U2, Beach Boys, Elvis Pressley, Transformers, etc.)! But I warn you before you look into it. It's really disturbing and unreal!

It makes so much sense! But I've been so blind! I just looked up something about Jerry Lee Lewis (yes, he's featured on there), and on his page in Wikipedia, it says:


His mother enrolled him in Southwestern Assemblies of God University in Waxahachie, Texas, secure in the knowledge that her son would now be exclusively singing his songs to the Lord. But Lewis daringly played a boogie woogie rendition of "My God Is Real" at a church assembly that sent him packing the same night. Pearry Green, then president of the student body, related how during a talent show Lewis played some "worldly" music. The next morning, the dean of the school called both Lewis and Green into his office to expel them both. Lewis said that Green shouldn't be expelled because "he didn't know what I was going to do." Years later Green asked Lewis: "Are you still playing the devil's music?" Lewis replied "Yes, I am. But you know it's strange, the same music that they kicked me out of school for is the same kind of music they play in their churches today. The difference is, I know I am playing for the devil and they don't" [emphasis mine].


Go in God's graces,

p.s. try to alert all you know in Christ about this! And try to snatch sinners from the fire!

The Shack - a Novel Truth?

Maybe you've heard of it. It's been out a while now. It's a FICTIONAL work of a guy who in the wake of his 6 yr. old daughter's death, meets with God in the Shack where she is killed. First of all, let me say, this fictional work is another new age assault on Christianity and Christian doctrine. You have such themes as the Trinity manifesting themselves as black women, except Jesus, who is presumbably a Jewish Carpenter. And once again, as in all new age teachings, God is with and in all people, regardless of religion or belief. It contains, though subtely woven in the novel, panentheism, that God is in all things.

"Jesus even tells Mack that “God, who is the ground of all being, dwells in, around, and through all things—ultimately emerging as the real” (p. 112). This is pure New Age spirituality."

The Quran advocates Violence against Women!

Have you heard of the deaths of the two lovely young teenage girls in TX? Evidently their father killed them for being "too American." Robert Spencer writes an interesting article on them.

Over the next few days, as more details emerge about the murders of Amina and Sarah Said, we will see Islamic spokesmen on TV (Ibrahim Hooper is probably sitting for make-up as you read this) explaining that honor killing is a cultural practice that has nothing to do with Islam, and of course above all the one thing we must avoid doing in the aftermath of these murders is entertain for even a moment the possibility that Islamic attitudes and atmospherics had anything to do with the deaths of these girls.

And Alan Colmes will nod sagely and agree that Islamophobia is a terrible problem, and Sean Hannity will burble about the "hijacking of a great religion," and Glenn Beck will assure us that the Qur'an teaches nonviolence, and a splendid time is guaranteed for all. No one will dream of holding the American Muslim community accountable for aiding and abetting the creation of a culture of violence against women. Oh no. That would be "Islamophobic."
