A Modern-day Parable - Part 1
By Ron McGatlin
In a land not
so very far away and in a time of signs and wonders lived a people of great mystery.
A number of
generations back in their history, life was simpler and moved at a slower pace.
In the mostly agricultural-based culture, many young men and women did well
with only a third grade to a sixth grade education. Generally life was lived in
a more limited sphere of social and family relationships.
However, a
few of the young men and women were much more highly gifted mentally. Though
they lacked the brawn to be truly great at farming or forestry, they were
intellectually far brighter than all the other people. Therefore, they grew to
seek much higher places of ruling over what they considered were the common
simple people. They had been given their exceptional mental gifts to bless and
help the people of God. However, something else happened.
They began to
consider themselves as elite human beings. The elite few were easily able to
out-smart the population of the nations and thereby gain much wealth and power.
These elite ones began to function as gods within themselves in a relatively
small collective group, as they covertly manipulated the people toward goals
and objectives that kept them in control but were designed to look like programs
favoring the people.
However, it
did not always work out for the elite. Many of the common people in the nations
had a strong faith in the true God and His Son, Christ Jesus. Not only did the
commoners’ faith in their God sustain them and protect them from being taken
over, they also spread their faith to much of the rest of the world.
Because of
all this the elite despised the God of the people. They had trusted in their
mentality as their god, and it was often challenged and defeated by the Spirit
God of the commoners. The elite became aligned with another spirit god that had
the same disrespect for the God of the people that they did. This union greatly
increased their power to conquer the people as it added dark spirit power to
their intellectual power.
Through their
manipulation nations were pitted against one another in an effort to take
control and defeat the God of the commoners. Among some nations elite leaders
who hated the people of God arose with fierce military strength empowered by evil
spirits to attempt to defeat and annihilate the people of God from the earth.
In spite of all they could do, the God of the common people proved again and
again to be superior and stronger than their gods of spiritual evil and
intellectual brilliance.
It became obvious
to the elite that the people of God could never be defeated as long as their
faith in their God was strong. Living in the order and ways of their God caused
the people and families to be strong and unified working together in the
righteousness and power of their God. The elite people along with their evil
spirit god devised cunning but relatively simple plans to conquer the nations
that yet were not under their control. Particularly one most powerful nation
that stood to strongly influence many other nations had to be conquered.
Their plan
was to first separate the common people from their God, and then they could
take them over and conquer them. Their plan would require several generations
to complete but was sure to work.
As the elite,
they had full access to the higher schools of learning and began to take up
positions of teaching and authority in the training of the people who would be
in responsible positions of teaching and guiding the next generations. They knew
to take it slowly, step by step. They could not immediately turn the people
away from their faith in their God. They had to devise alternate belief systems
for the people to get them to turn away from their one true powerful God.
Through the
educational systems they began planting secularism and humanism in the minds of
those who would be teaching and leading the people. The students were trained
to question the ways of the past with intellectual understanding and were
challenged in their faith. Most of the students, both the elite and the common,
were convinced after years of indoctrination that the beliefs of the past
generations were antiquated and irrelevant to modern scientific understanding.
The elite
anti-God spirit also infiltrated the religious training institutions with the alternate
belief systems and it quickly spread into the religious church systems creating
decades of lukewarm mostly dead religion. The future leaders of the next
generations were trained to turn away from dependency upon the God of their fathers
who had defeated all the attempts of the elite antis to take control of their
nations.
Soon there
was little respect for the ways of God and other ways were implanted. All of
the natural human temptations were ignited through all avenues of training of
young people. Every place they looked there was the implanting of alternate
ideas and ways that were against the ways of the God of the common people who
had enabled the nations to abide in freedom and to be productive and
prosperous.
The pride of
life and desire for riches and fame were encouraged. The lust of the natural
fleshly desires were inflamed through constant inputs from all avenues of
training. The next generations of people began to believe that the old-fashioned
God of their fathers was a false limitation to the fun and pleasure of their
now self-centered pleasure-seeking lives.
Their strong
personal lives and the strong family units were breaking down and the nations were
weakening.
Yet, in one
most powerful nation, there remained a strength in governmental leadership that
still fostered and allowed faith in the God of the people to remain somewhat
strong in the nation. Many people would not yet accept another religion that
honored not the God of the people but honored the anti spirit of the elite. New
top level leadership was needed to weaken the strong militaries and open the
way for an anti-God religion to be implanted in the strong nation. A suitable
candidate for such a leader was not found among the people of the nation. And the
people would never accept a foreigner from another nation and another religion
to lead them in the highest office in the land.
A leader had
to be found that was part of the elite anti-camp from a foreign nation but who
could convince the people that he was one of them while he gradually removed
the old leadership from the militaries and governing headships of the nation
and replaced them with those aligned with the elite antis’ plan.
The perfect
man for the job was found and put into place as head of the powerful nation. He
was groomed and coached by the elite antis to trick the common people into
believing he was one of their own kind and hide his true religious beliefs and his
agreement with the plans of the elite antis. The grand deception worked very
well as governmental power linked to the strong media and educational systems along
with the failing faith of the common people in the true God, made room for
deadly decisions and actions to alter the nation and affect the world.
The many
decisions that the leader made that were against the wellbeing of the nation
caused many people to believe that he was incompetent and bungling. This
masquerading elite anti leader was far from dumb as they supposed. He was
simply a part of a brilliant plan of the elite antis to open the door to
programs against the God of the common people to bring down the powerful
influential nation, thus destroying the major resistance to the takeover of the
world under the control of the elites.
Lavish spending
on programs that provide for the common people that which had previously been
provided by their God would lead to massive debt and eventually the collapse of
the nation’s economy.
In order to
reduce the population of the common people that could stand against the
takeover of the nations, the people were convinced to kill millions of their
babies before they were born. Through economic and other pressures the common
people were driven and enticed to birth fewer babies. Soon the original
population was in significant decline. Hundreds of thousands of people who
followed other gods were invited in to replace the population. Immigrants from
other nations already ruled by the elite antis’ powerful religion rapidly
multiplied after being invited in and funded by the masquerading leader to
infiltrate the nation.
The common
people had left their God who had been their strength, and the powers of evil were
released over the people. The government had been seized, and all that remained
was the final militant takeover and the annihilation of the remaining dissenting
people who still followed the one true God. Thus the nation of God that could
not be taken over by military force had been defeated from within.
At a certain
time planned by the elite antis, certain financial tactics were enacted by the
elite that completed the collapse of the once strong nation’s economy and
created great suffering and disorder in the nation. Other nations were
similarly affected, and much of the world was suddenly in chaos. The military
of the once strong nation and all law enforcement agencies were called into
action to try to control the masses of common people uprising across the land
against the masquerading leader and all the leaders that he had put in place to
rule over the people. Powerful foreign armies were brought in to stop the
uprising and control the people.
The millions
of common people in the uprising were no match for the well-armed fighting
machine of the immigrant elite anti-God people and the foreign armies equipped
with the finest weapons and equipment provided by the same nation that it was
attacking.
Almost the
whole world was in chaos, and it seemed that every person who followed the true
God would be wiped from the earth. It seemed that the elite anti-God people
were winning their quest to rule the entire world.
BUT GOD!
Many people
who worshiped and trusted in the one true God went underground and were
miraculously kept by the supernatural provision of their God. All of the
pretenders who had only halfway sought to follow the true God were either
killed, or they turned fully to God and were purified of all the contamination
of the past training of the elite antis. All of God’s people who survived
through the years of the oppression of the foreign anti-God armies were
purified and became totally holy and walked in the Spirit of their God continuously.
When the
purified holy remnant of people cried out to their God in one accord, holy
angels were sent to confuse their enemies, and they destroyed themselves.
THE SAD PART
OF THIS TALE IS THAT IF THE PEOPLE HAD HUMBLED THEMSELVES AND TURNED BACK TO
GOD IN ONE ACCORD AT ANY TIME DURING THE DEGRADATION, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A
VERY DIFFERENT STORY.
However, it
all worked out in the end. The purified holy people of God arose as precious
jewels of their God to a land of ashes. They were the holy seed to replenish
the land with people of the one true God. Their God gave them beauty for ashes
and joy for mourning. The mountain of God ruled over all of the people and over
all the earth. All praised the living God and His glory covered the entire
earth.
The world was
restored to the original plan of the one true God.
