AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “This may just be the single most important book on modern Evangelicalism in recent years. It is bold, clear, and very well-researched.”—John MacArthur"Some will quibble over details, but no one should miss the powerful warning in this book. We face a gathering storm, as Winston Churchill warned a century ago, but this time the enemy is inside as well as outside the gates. Every convinced and unashamed Evangelical should read, ponder, and pray over this important book."—Os GuinnessHow deeply have leftist billionaires infiltrated America’s churches?In Shepherds for Sale, Megan Basham of the Daily Wire documents how progressive powerbrokers —from George Soros, to the founder of eBay, to former members of the Obama administration— set out to change the American church. Their goal: to co-opt evangelicals for political purposes. She exposes:·        The left-wing billionaires, foundations, and think tanks that deliberately target Christian media, universities, megachurches, nonprofits, and even entire denominations·        The celebrity megachurch pastor who secretly encouraged a group of pastors to change their views on sexuality·        The revered Presbyterian theologian who backed a congregation rebelling against his own denominationThese are just a glimpse into the compromises and astroturf campaigns Basham uncovers. Many evangelical leaders are pushing their members to “whisper” about sexual sins, reconsider the importance of abortion, lament the effects of climate change, and repent of “perpetuating systemic racism.” And in exchange for toeing a left-wing line, many of those church leaders and institutions have received cash, career jumps, prestige, and praise. Basham brings the receipts, and names names.A rigorously reported exposé, Shepherds for Sale is a warning of what happens when the church trusts the world’s wisdom instead of Scripture.  Read more

Most people have heard of Jesus Christ, considered the Messiah by Christians, and who lived 2000 years ago. But very few have ever heard of Sabbatai Zevi, who declared himself the Messiah in 1666. By proclaiming redemption was available through acts of sin, he amassed a following of over one million passionate believers, about half the world's Jewish population during the 17th century.Although many Rabbis at the time considered him a heretic, his fame extended far and wide. Sabbatai's adherents planned to abolish many ritualistic observances, because, according to the Talmud, holy obligations would no longer apply in the Messianic time. Fasting days became days of feasting and rejoicing. Sabbateans encouraged and practiced sexual promiscuity, adultery, incest and religious orgies.After Sabbati Zevi's death in 1676, his Kabbalist successor, Jacob Frank, expanded upon and continued his occult philosophy. Frankism, a religious movement of the 18th and 19th centuries, centered on his leadership, and his claim to be the reincarnation of the Messiah Sabbatai Zevi. He, like Zevi, would perform "strange acts" that violated traditional religious taboos, such as eating fats forbidden by Jewish dietary laws, ritual sacrifice, and promoting orgies and sexual immorality. He often slept with his followers, as well as his own daughter, while preaching a doctrine that the best way to imitate God was to cross every boundary, transgress every taboo, and mix the sacred with the profane. Hebrew University of Jerusalem Professor Gershom Scholem called Jacob Frank, "one of the most frightening phenomena in the whole of Jewish history".Jacob Frank would eventually enter into an alliance formed by Adam Weishaupt and Meyer Amshel Rothschild called the Order of the Illuminati. The objectives of this organization was to undermine the world's religions and power structures, in an effort to usher in a utopian era of global communism, which they would covertly rule by their hidden hand: the New World Order. Using secret societies, such as the Freemasons, their agenda has played itself out over the centuries, staying true to the script. The Illuminati handle opposition by a near total control of the world's media, academic opinion leaders, politicians and financiers. Still considered nothing more than theory to many, more and more people wake up each day to the possibility that this is not just a theory, but a terrifying Satanic conspiracy. Read more

Like a riff track, but for the Bible.The Holy Bible is an ancient, beautiful collection of myths, fables, and other works of fiction. Written over the course of a thousand years by a variety of human authors, it is a towering work of literature and literally the best-selling book of all time.As a work of moral philosophy, the Holy Bible is disgusting. It's violent, racist, misogynist, homophobic, antisemitic, endorses slavery, and encourages blood sacrifice.The Bible is wonderful. The Bible is awful.But why do Christians get all the fun? Why should they be the only ones to read, interpret, analyze, and comment on the contents of the Bible? Atheists should be interested in the Bible as well. It is one of the best-preserved sources of information about the culture and art of ancient peoples in the south-eastern Mediterranean, and it is in a very real way amazing that we can read what are essentially the actual words of people who lived thousands of years before we do now, more or less intact.Blasphemous Bible Studies is a commentary on the Bible, starting with Episode 1 on book 1 of the Bible: Genesis. Reid McArthur paraphrases, analyzes, critiques, and rails against the the stories of the Bible, focusing on how they are both amazing and horrifying. Taking the Bible where it is, the goal of this book is to be fun and accessible to everyone regardless of reading level or familiarity with the Bible itself, or even familiarity with Christianity. Reid will guide you through the actual things written on the real pages of the Bible, what they could mean, what they do mean, and the ways in which Christians paper over some of the worst atrocities written in those pages.Blasphemous Bible Studies also looks at a few other pieces of art and how they fit in with the Book of Genesis. Atrahasis and The Epic of Gilgamesh are Ancient Babylonian poems which bear a striking resemblance to some of the stories and passages of the Bible, despite being written nearly 1000 years before The Bible itself. Did the Bible copy them? It is more likely that the Bible is in conversation with them: many Biblical authors clearly had it out for the Babylonians, and the ways in which their writings are similar (and different) highlight this cultural conflict, and remind us that religious rivalries can last through the ages. The Babylonian scriptures also create an interesting contrast when it comes to the ways in which we have lost them: while the Bible has clearly been stitched together, copied over, translated differently, and drifted through time, the Ancient Babylonian poems are simply missing pieces while also being much more true to the original authors' words.Finally, we'll look at a modern work: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. This is useful to compare against the actual story of Joseph and his family, to see the ways that apologists sand off the rough edges of the Bible and make it more palatable to broad audiences in order to spread its awful moral messages.Whether you're an Atheist or a Christian, or somewhere in between, the commentary contained here should give you something to think about, and help you understand scripture in new and different ways.

En este libro, Pascal Boyer demuestra a través de la ciencia cómo las creencias religiosas se pueden explicar gracias a cómo funciona el cerebro.¿Por qué los hombres tienen una religión portadora de la verdad? ¿Por qué persiste a pesar de los descubrimientos científicos? ¿Por qué conduce a actos heroicos y a la intolerancia? Un vecino se protege de las brujas, porque de lo contrario ellas podrían lanzarle dardos invisibles que envenenarían su sangre. Un chamán quema hojas de tabaco frente a una hilera de estatuillas y habla con ellas. Un grupo de creyentes va por todos lados advirtiendo que el fin del mundo se acerca. Otros reciben el consejo de ir a la iglesia o a algún lugar tranquilo para hablar con una persona invisible que está presente en todas partes y que sabe lo que van a decir porque Él lo sabe todo.Si quisiéramos catalogar estas prácticas podríamos tomar dos caminos: decir que son producto de la locura humana o pensar que son testimonio de la admirable capacidad del hombre para comprender la vida y el universo.Pascal Boyer pone a nuestro alcance los descubrimientos más recientes de la psicología cognoscitiva, la antropología, la lingüística y la biología evolutiva para explicar que las creencias religiosas y los comportamientos religiosos no son un misterio insondable, tienen una explicación: todo se debe a la manera cómo funciona nuestro cerebro. Como resultado de la evolución, nuestro cerebro tiene la capacidad para adquirir cierto tipo de ideas religiosas, en especial con la muerte, la moral y los ritos. La fuerza de estas ideas es tal que lleva a los hombres a entregarse a ellas y, en casos extremos, a la intolerancia y el fanatismo. Read more

El título de este libro es una de las afamadas e incómodas respuestas, mediante las cuales –según coinciden los cuatro evangelistas‒ el Apóstol San Pedro negó a Nuestro Señor, en el ocaso del día que lo apresaron. Está aplicado a Jorge Mario Bergoglio, devenido en Francisco cuando se iniciaba el año 2013. Esta es la situación en la que aquí y ahora tenemos la impresión de estar inmersos. Ya no parece bastar el Iscariotismo para inteligir el mal que nos estremece. Ya no es sólo un beso taimado y treinta monedas tiznadas. Hay más. Quien funge de Pedro reúne todos los indicios de que no conoce a Cristo. Quien conoce a Cristo no puede permanecer indiferente ante este extraño Pedro que merece cada día, tras una nueva trapisonda de su inagotable repertorio, el clamor del Hijo exigiéndole el irrevocable ¡Vade retro Satanás! Aquí se centra nuestra acotada pretensión. En intentar reflexionar sobre este tránsito dramático que estamos padeciendo; y que, insistimos, aunque antecedentes tiene y no conviene nunca ocultarlos, hoy ha llegado a una cima que es sima. Esto es, hablando en paradojas, a lo más alto de lo más bajo. Read more

This is volume 1 of the Bible Magick series. In this book we will discuss magick and some of its uses in the bible. Often we are told that magick and the teachings of the bible don't mix. We are warned time and time again that if we use magick we are breaking Gods law. In this book I will show you clearly that magick has been used in the bible by Divine command. This book is not a book on how to perform bible magick, but rather that there is such a thing as bible magic and that's it’s okay to use the bible for magical purposes. In future volumes I will go into bible magick practice itself. This book will serve as background that you will need before starting a biblical magic practice. Using the bible for magick, although fairly common, is quite controversial. There are clear passages in the bible that state magick of all kinds is forbidden. Yet, there are so many instances that God himself commands his followers to preform magickal acts. I am not talking about Miracles, but he is actually commanding them to preform magick that you would find amongst other magicians of the day. In this book we will examine a few of these occurrences. We will also discuss why the bible writers forbade magick as well. You wont want to miss that chapter. Let us begin. Read more

Today’s society and culture are increasingly saturated with evil, Genesis 6-level activity. Delusion and deception (deceivers and demonic influences) assault this generation through reprobate thinking.We only have to consider how this so-called woke insanity with its cancel culture is affecting people who have been inculcated with anti-God, anti-America-as-founded education—how social, mainstream news and entertainment media and even the commercial industry and U.S. military suffer from the upside-down thinking flowing from humanity turning its back on God.TRAJECTORY: Tracking the Approaching Tribulation Storm, projects through seventeen Bible prophecy experts a vivid, in-depth picture of what is happening.

What if everything you believed to be true, everything you had built your life upon, was a lie? What if discovering the truth and turning from error cost you everything? The View Beneath is the true story of one woman’s journey into religious deception through the teachings of Rick Joyner, a spiritually dangerous leader that many consider a true prophet. After moving to North Carolina to attend his ministry school, she began her descent into a dark, deceptive movement that took her away from Biblical Christianity and immersed her in another gospel. Part testimony, part expose, The View Beneath is an inside look at the growing invasion of dangerous false doctrine. Mishel investigates deep beneath the surface of MorningStar Ministries and the Dominionist Movement at large. She candidly shares her journey as she discovers that beneath the double speak, the Christian-sounding terms, beneath the claims of trips to heaven and divine revelation, beneath the prophecy and claims of a Kingdom ruled by men, what is really being taught is the occult.

"The desire to understand magic in any specific cultural context is an intellectual puzzle not only for scholars but believers." - Jim BakerThe Cunning Man's Handbook is a monumental work of phenomenal scope and scholarship,a comprehensive and challenging exploration of the practices and beliefs of Cunning Folk in Britain and America between 1550-1900, their heyday. Exploring the social and theological milieu of the period, the author demonstrates the essentially Christian nature of Cunning practices, presenting an illuminating discourse on the concept of magic and its perceived methodologies. Operating at the boundaries of the law and society, between medicine and magic, Cunning men and women occupied a liminal role as healers, charmers and magicians. Drawing from a huge range of sources, the range of services offered by Cunning Folk is thoroughly expounded, from divination through astrology and geomancy to dream interpretation, from charms, spells and curses to conjurations and treasure hunting. As author Jim Baker states, "The focus here is on the practice of folk magic and divination for access to the preternatural".The evolution of Cunning practices as a living tradition over a three hundred and fifty year span is explored in depth, illustrating their practical and contemporary nature. The analogous practices of African-American conjure and root work are also discussed and offer insights into oral fragments of Cunning practices lost to history, presenting a compelling example of how modernity modifies tradition.Referencing dozens of Cunning men and women and their practices, this work offers a unique glimpse into magical history, and the opportunity for readers to reclaim the practical essence of Cunning Magic.

The Red Dragon has been variously treated as a grimoire, a piece of folk literature, and a joke manuscript; it comprises one part of what is loosely termed "The Grand Grimoire"- a collection of magickal works from the Renaissance such as the Black Pullet and Lesser Keys of Solomon. The Red Dragon however bears the title "Grand Grimoire" on its own. Multiple editions of it exist, some with material tacked on. It takes the form of a long ritualistic ceremony designed to secure communication with a demon known as "Lucifuge Rofocale" followed by various invocations and incantations and spells. The contents are heretical in the extreme, from rituals involving boiling a black cat to the use of toxic substances in ritual form. Small wonder, that this text has gained so much notoreity.
