Got Religion?
Up until now, my weblog has focused primarily on Covid-19 and the injections that Big Pharma developed to purportedly address this pandemic. Interspersed in my posts are occasional references to religion – specifically the Christian religion including references to applicable Bible verses. Those who read my blog and are not of the Christian faith may be confused at times, not understanding the relationship between all things Covid and one's personal faith. That's quite understandable as it's a somewhat complicated subject to tackle and even Christians don't comprehend the extent of what's going on in our world today and where we're headed. So essentially, we're all in the same boat. However, our collective boat is headed for a destination that none of us have ever planned for. Instead, unbeknownst to us – others have planned our destination for us.
Our Itinerary
When we book a vacation cruise and board a boat/ship to a certain destination in the world, it includes various scenic stops along the way before we reach our desired final destination. Our itinerary provides the details of where we'll go, when we'll arrive there, how long we'll stay in port, how long it'll take to arrive at our final destination, and lastly when we'll arrive back at our home port. What would you suppose happens though when you discover that your boat cruise took you to a destination, not of your own choosing, and worse yet, you realize that you will never return back home? Would you be alarmed? That would certainly be an understatement.
Their Itinerary
The above scenario is an allegory depicting the events of what's actually happening in our world today. We're being taken to a destination, not of our own choosing from which we can never return back home. Things will never be the same. The saying "the good ole days" will take on added significance and will ring even more true in the future. If you think I'm being overly dramatic, please read on.
The boat that we're all in, is named the SS Transhumanist. The Captains of our world have plotted our course to transform our lives and bodies to reach the final destination of becoming TRANSHUMANS, hence the term, TRANSHUMANISM. That's their itinerary booked as the final destination for all human beings on this planet. I wish that were an exaggeration or just a science fiction movie but the plot, unfortunately, is demonstrable and all too real. It's really a horror movie but it's not make-believe. If you think I'm nuts, read on. What do you have to lose except for several minutes of your life by reading more?
Transhumanism or Human 2.0
The following article, in my opinion, does a very good job of summarizing the goals of transhumanism and what that entails for us. As you read, you may want to pay attention and click on the links it contains, providing more helpful details.
In a nutshell, transhumanism is a philosophical movement that promotes the view that the human species should take control of its own evolution through human-enhancement technologies, such as brain implants and nanotechnology that reverses ageing. This will then allow humanity to transcend its physical and mental limitations. The term itself was first coined in 1957 by Julian Huxley; the brother of Aldous Huxley, the famous author of the dystopian novel Brave New World.
Science Fiction Minus the Fiction
Little did we know way back then that the Arnold Schwarzenegger Terminator movies were in reality, a shadow of the things to come (predictive programming). While we sat back in our comfy theater seats and enjoyed the movie, they gave us hints of what their intended future will look as we blissfully consumed our popcorn. Nowadays, there are no more hints; instead, these people who consider themselves to be world leaders are boldly and blatantly declaring what their intended agenda is. The "Skynet" is fast becoming a technological communications and mass surveillance reality and the masses of humanity will unwittingly play their role as part man and part machine.
Skynet is a fictional artificial neural network-based conscious group mind and artificial general superintelligence system that serves as the antagonistic force of the Terminator franchise. Wikipedia
Is this definition not the same as what was described in the article? As a Christian believer, I find it disturbing that most people in the church haven't a clue as to what lies ahead. Those in the pulpits remain silent either through ignorance or if aware of this agenda, for whatever reason, choose to not inform their congregations. My intent is not to point a finger or cast any blame but instead to alert people as to what's happening. I've taken the liberty to quote this Bible verse somewhat out of context but my point is unless we know what's taking place and the direction we're headed, we will end up as sheep taken to the slaughter.
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge....Hosea 4:6
God's Itinerary
Despite the plans of men, God has a plan and His itinerary is the one that ultimately prevails. In the midst of what lies ahead, rest assured that God is still in control of everything according to His schedule and absolute timing. Thus, trust and not fear will be the key to navigating our futures. Do you suppose that God, who is omniscient is surprised by what's happening today? Perish the thought. In fact, what's happening and what's still to come, has already been predicted as described in the pages of the Bible.
To begin with, it's vitally important to understand that every human being is made in the image of God.
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:26-27
Men and women were created by God to have fellowship with Him. Faith in God is not a formal religion but is instead, a personal relationship with God. God's plan was interrupted, albeit temporarily by the devil, a.k.a. Satan, a.k.a. the serpent as described in Genesis 3:1-15. In the Garden of Eden, the man and the woman were created to have fellowship with God but their disobedience resulted in the fall of mankind.
3 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made.
He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” 2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’” 4 But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths.
8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?” 10 And he said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.” 11 He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” 12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14 The Lord God said to the serpent,
“Because you have done this,
cursed are you above all livestock
and above all beasts of the field;
on your belly you shall go,
and dust you shall eat
all the days of your life.
15 I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and her offspring;
he shall bruise your head,
and you shall bruise his heel.”
Pursuant to the fall of humankind in the Garden, Satan has been at war with God – Satan's itinerary versus God's itinerary. Because of the serpent's temptation and trickery, the serpent was cursed by God, and the offspring of the woman was prophesied to bruise the serpent's head. In turn, the serpent was prophesied to bruise his heel. The "his" in verse 15 is a reference to Jesus Christ, who is the prophesied "offspring" of the woman. The bruising of his heel refers to the crucifixion of Jesus. The bruising of the serpent's head also occurred at the crucifixion of Jesus where Jesus' sacrificial death atoned for man's sin and provided triumph over Satan at the cross. This understanding lays the foundation to recognize what's happening today.
Despite Satan's defeat at the cross, Satan has not given up the fight. Though he is a defeated foe and has already lost the war, he continues to battle with God and continues to exact his revenge upon humankind. Question: Why is that? Answer: Because men and women are created in God's image. This is the key to understanding the ultimate goal of transhumanism. Satan absolutely hates and detests anything and anyone of God.
Thus the goal of transhumanism is to transform men and women who are created in the image of God into the image of Satan. What God has created humans to be via supernatural means, Satan attempts to do the same to humans via technology. Original Human 1.0, made up of flesh and bone, transformed to Human 2.0 made up of flesh and bone but upgraded with technology.
The same lie that the serpent spoke to Eve in the garden, still persists today.
“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. Genesis 3:4
That is the bold but false claim of transhumanism which promises eternal life; i.e., living forever through the interface of technology with our bodies made of flesh and blood. This is rebellious and runs counter to the promise of God that provides eternal life solely through the sacrificial death of Jesus as his blood spilled at the cross is the one and only means provided for obtaining eternal life.
If you haven't "got religion yet," right about now is the best time to start considering this matter as your life and your final destination depend on it. It's all about relationship – either with God or with the transhumanists. There is no middle ground. There is no fence-sitting. I hope to elaborate more on this topic in my next post so please stay tuned.
God's Itinerary for Obtaining Eternal Life
You may have been raised in a church or lived life as a child completely absent of religion or church life. It doesn't matter. What matters is a TRUSTING RELATIONSHIP with God as exemplified in this woman's testimony. She's "been through the wringer" but eventually prevailed in spite of her life's hardships, mistakes and tragedies.
Jesus Saves
"I'm not who I used to be...God never left me."
If you have a hard time relating to the woman's testimony because it doesn't resemble your life much, then perhaps you'll better relate to this interview.
