They were particularly to focus on decreasing, trashing the proven reputation of the authenticity of the Biblical record as history and as truth.
They were also tasked with discounting, trashing, arguing against the Deity of Jesus/Yeshua The Christ and arguing against His proven Resurrection.
Therefore, a long list of more traditional Christian church organizations have become liberal and too often little more than adjunct arms of Marxism around the world. ... cheering on the absurdities of "Liberation Theology."
Thankfully, God has slated for them to suffer His censure as they and their leadership crash and burn increasingly wholesale.
On the other hand--with different fingers--Pentecostal groups believing in the proven and accurate authority of The Bible in beliefs and practices of the Christian faith; in modern day miracles etc. etc. have been growing like wild-fire--e.g. in Brazil and other places.
Even in the formerly Christian nation called the USA, traditional churches have been losing congregants right and left and more Biblically authentic congregations and denominations have been growing.
Also, nondenominational congregations have increasingly sprung up and grown rapidly.
There is the interesting case of Rick Warren. He wrote a book--IIRC called THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE ... became quite famous--made a ton of money and still lived on only a fraction of his income and still drove his older beat-up pickup or some such. He was fairly conservative, Biblically authentic etc.
Then something began happening to him--he began hobnobbing with OThuga, The Pope and a list of other not so Biblical religionists. Who knows what he still believes in his heart but most of us Evangelicals now consider him at least a little suspect.
We can't help but wonder if he was a liberal plant all along.
Bagster, you might look into the possible globalist ties to the World Council of Churches and the National Council of churches. Look at the state of the “traditional” churches’ leadership. Do we see blatant violations of scriptural law? Gay priests/ministers? Advocacy of abortion?
The pastor out in the field is likely not traduced directly by the Clowns/Globalists. Look at Seminary funding. Perhaps some of them, who train the field pastors, could have been traduced. Look at the denominational leadership at highest circles.
I have not done any direct research on this but have spoken with a few people who have. The Communist Manifesto is replete with the desire to destroy the pure religions of the people. World and National Councils, while perhaps enacted by very sincere Christians after WWII, were overtaken by globalists and look at what we have today. I suspect if you jump down that rabbit hole, you will discover some quite sad and unsavory factoids.
