SOME OF THE ROLE OF THE FALSE PROPHET ARE DONE BY THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA

James and Natalie Ricks

THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA AS FALSE PROPHETS

Lies in the media, grossly unfair coverage and double standards are undermining America. Will we soon see a mad atomic weapons race in the volatile Middle East as a result of a media cover up of a dangerous, imaginary, Iranian Deal? Many young men, the pride of America, were lost because of the lying media during the Vietnam War.

MOST LOOK TO THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA FOR GUIDANCE AND MORALITY

Twenty five percent of Americans attend church on a regular basis.  Most of those are over 55 years of age.  Among those who do attend church regularly, about half of churches do not emphasize the Bible or morality.   Many church pastors minimize the Bible and the laws contained within its pages. Therefore about 85% of Americans get NO real guidance from churches. They must rely on the media for knowledge of what is right and what is wrong.  Dr. Goebbels was Hitler’s propaganda minister. He produced indirect propaganda by hiding his anti-Semitic messages in newsreels and movies. Needless to say Hollywood is also an ungodly influence on us. Goebbels was successful in preparing Europe for the final solution (mass murder of all Jews) using mostly entertainment media. The power of the media to shape public opinion should never be minimized!

THE VIETNAM WAR MEDIA BETRAYAL

The Communists launched a major offensive during the Vietnam War. The Tet Offensive was a substantial defeat for them. Cables after the fall of the Communist evil empire reveal that the North Vietnamese war leaders were thinking the war unwinnable and were considering a war ending agreement with America. Then they read the America media. Our media called the defeat of the Communist North a victory for them. Communists then rightly assumed that all they needed to do was holdout until U.S. public opinion forced us out. After the war was over, Hanoi said "It is a major irony of the Vietnam War that our propaganda transformed this debacle into a brilliant victory.” The American media gave power and credence to whatever the communist said. They called the Tet offensive a great victory for Hanoi ignoring all facts to the contrary. This distorted media action resulted in the war lasting over 3 more years, killing thousands of our troops. Those deaths can likely be blamed on the U.S. media in addition to the over four million murdered by the Communists dictators like maniacal Pol Pot after they took over all of Indochina after the allies hastily left that part of the world to the total control of evil communism.  The truth was that Tet cost them dearly and General Westmoreland argued that panicky news coverage gave the public the unfair perception that America had been defeated. Our media lied and people died. Maybe they were just so negative about the war and positive toward Communism that they could not see the events accurately and helped our enemy the evil empire.

WHAT ARE THE ROLES OF TRUE AND FALSE PROPHETS?

GOOD PROPHETS TELL THE PEOPLE THEY NEED TO TURN AROUND AND REPENT. God does not send prophets to people or Israel to tell them they are doing great.   See Jer 36:2-3. God through the prophet tells them that every man must turn from his evil ways. Most prophets of Judah, at that time, supported the King, his evil governance and pagan ways and were in favor of killing Jeremiah.   Elijah the archetype of all prophets told Ahab he was worshipping an evil and false god and 400 prophets opposed Elijah’s Message. See I Kings 18:25-39. False prophets tell the people to continue in ungodly behavior. They say God or their version of God is with us even when we abandon God’s Laws and ways for pagan compromise.   The people believed in both the historical God of Israel, Jehovah (English version of [‘name) and various pagan gods of Baal and Ashtoreth.   See Isaiah 5:20-23 and I Kings 18:21.

THE MEDIA PLAYS MANY OF THE CRUCIAL ROLES OF THE FALSE PROPHETS

False prophets disliked the change and return back to God message and wanted Jeremiah executed. See Jer 26: 7-8. Our media tends to destroy anyone who speaks up for family values and A RETURN TO A MORE BIBLICAL society. One of the highest sacraments of our media is abortion.   Two years ago, congress was voting on a bill to criminalize encouraging abortion based on gender or race. In Asia, this genocide against baby girls is one of the reasons for their harmful and vast gender imbalances in Asia. Our media hid the story of the anti- genocidal legislation from the public to not allow gender or race to be a factor in abortions, by not reporting that congress was even considering such a bill. No pressure was put on congressmen to support the bill. This is an example of how the media protects destructive practices like abortion. I heard of it only on Christian Radio. The liberal members of congress killed the bill and the public never knew of it.  Our media helps keep the nation going in the wrong direction just like false prophets of old. True prophets speak truth to power and criticize destructive corrupt governance and religion. See IIChron 18: 11, 22. One true prophet told the King he was wrong and all the bad prophets told him to do what he wanted. God allowed a lying spirit to guide them.

TRUE PROPHETS GIVE WARNINGS WHILE FALSE PROPHETS COVER FOR PAGANISM AND DECADENCE

The paganism of today’s world is in part earth and animal worship using extreme environmentalism. Trees and animal are more important than the well-being of human beings in the new global warming hysteria. A true prophet speaking for God might say “I remember when you as a people came to the wilderness of the new world to worship me in a free manner. Your national founding doctrines talked about ‘The Creator has endowed’. You carved out the greatest nation and economy out of the wilderness. You acknowledged my blessing in helping you do so. You made a special holiday to thank me for your blessing. Bibles were carried across the frontier. You saved the world from the violence of Fascism and FDR led you in a prayer heard by 100 million Americans asking my blessing on D-Day 1944. You gave my word the Bible to the troops in WWII.

However now our media attacks those who speak up for Biblical and religious principles. Note the media feeding frenzy against the new Indiana and Arkansas law guaranteeing religious (Christian) freedom. Further the main stream biased media is telling the public that the Iran nuclear deal is a great diplomatic triumph. Those familiar with the mid-east all say the deal will hasten Iran’s nuclear ambitions and kick off a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. Can you think of anything more dangerous for America in the war on terror than a middle east full of terrorist and Atomic weapons? Like a powerful wolf pack the media attacks those pushing for a return to more moral primarily Biblical heritage and defending those leading the nation down the decadent ungodly direction. See I kings 22:22-23 for the story of the one true lone (vs13) true prophet who warned of danger and how he was attacked while the King listened to the many lying prophets. Has God turned America over to lying prophets, the mainstream media and many silent church pulpits? Further see Jer 6:13-14, 23:17, 22, 26:11-13, 28:15.

WHAT SHOULD JOURNALISTIC INTEGRITY ENCOMPASS?

Journalists should try to keep our leaders honest and responsible by speaking truth to power. They should be watchdogs. They should criticize when government violates the constitution and acts corruptly. Truth is obviously in eye of the beholder. But I see no effort to even try being unbiased on the part of the mainstream media. In the past they had newspapers on both sides of the issues and it sort of balanced. Now all the mainstream media say the exact same things. (Liberal Talking Points) They often give too much coverage to one story which might increase racial tensions in hopes of influencing a desired election turn out and hide other important stories such as IRS oppression of religious political groups and the Tea party constitutional patriots. Truth has fallen in the streets and journalistic integrity is a thing of the past. See Jer 59:14-15. Good is punished and evil is celebrated in this society by our media and Hollywood while many churches are silent and thereby P.C. acceptable. See Isa 5:20-23, Math 7:15-16.
