Will Christianity and The Bible become illegal? · The Slippery Slope

• 0:06
  Hi I'm Jeff Allen. Thank you for listening to the
• 0:09
  slippery slope. So the title the headline for
• 0:13
  this episode, I believe Christianity and the Bible will
• 0:17
  soon be illegal. Why do you say?
• 0:21
  So I'm going to go over a few articles few that I've already
• 0:24
  touched on in previous episodes until you explain to you why.
• 0:28
  I think this will happen. It's very concerning anyway, the
• 0:34
  first one I'll bring up. Okay is not so long ago, this
• 0:37
  headline here, it says well I'll read one from ABC, News has
• 0:40
  Queensland police say the wine biller shooting was a
• 0:45
  religiously motivated terrorist attack so if you remember I did
• 0:49
  this episode a while ago when this article first came out I'll
• 0:53
  just read part of it. It says, Deputy Commissioner
• 0:56
  Linford said, police had been investigating Stacy trains diary
• 1:00
  as well as the Be as text social media postings and 190
• 1:05
  interviews. What we've been able to glean
• 1:08
  from that information is that the train family members,
• 1:12
  subscribe to what we would call a broad Christian
• 1:17
  fundamentalist, belief system known as premillennialism.
• 1:21
  She said, Deputy Police Commissioner Linford said the
• 1:25
  trio saw police as monsters and demons.
• 1:28
  She said the covid pandemic, climate change global Ava,
• 1:31
  conflicts and social disparity, contributed to their belief, in
• 1:36
  their system, whilst the behavior was similar in some
• 1:39
  respect to Sovereign citizens. We don't believe this was
• 1:43
  connected to a sovereign. Citizen ideology, we believe
• 1:46
  it's connected to the Christian extremist ideology.
• 1:51
  There was a belief that this is what she's saying, okay.
• 1:55
  There was a belief that Christ will return to the Earth who
• 1:58
  provide peace and prosperity. But it will be preceded by an
• 2:03
  error or a period of time of tribulation, widespread
• 2:07
  destruction and suffering. They started preparing for the
• 2:11
  end of days. Obviously, they've taken out of
• 2:14
  context, even if this train family, did were listening to
• 2:18
  this kind of we're listening to supposed Bible teachers, okay?
• 2:23
  And even if this was did make a part of their own ideology,
• 2:27
  there is nothing in the Bible about About taking up arms and
• 2:32
  shooting shooting innocent people and killing police
• 2:36
  officers when they come to try and look for you this.
• 2:40
  And the way they've Twisted Bible teaching and now
• 2:45
  describing it as extremists, fundamentalist Ideology.
• 2:49
  Now, another story again, I covered this last year.
• 2:54
  When it first came out, I'll read I'll read this headline to
• 2:57
  you. This comes from the European
• 2:59
  conservatives. - the Bible as hate speech.
• 3:02
  It says, so goes on to say, on March 30th in 2022, a finished
• 3:07
  court decision. Brought good news to everyone
• 3:09
  who loves both freedom of speech, and freedom of religion,
• 3:12
  finish MP, let me teach you how to say her name, but I'll give
• 3:17
  it a go. It's par V or a sauna who was on
• 3:21
  trial for hate speech for expressing convictions that
• 3:24
  arise out of her. Christian faith was acquitted
• 3:27
  on, all counts her views cut to the heart.
• 3:30
  Of the prevailing view of sexuality.
• 3:32
  Today in the West on Twitter and Facebook, she posted content
• 3:37
  calling homosexual acts dishonorable, contrary to Nature
• 3:41
  and Shameless this trial garnered International attention
• 3:45
  largely because brass Annan was charged with hate speech.
• 3:50
  Not just because she expressed her views in her own words, but
• 3:54
  because she quoted the Bible, Which is remember all these
• 4:00
  Ralph allow quoted the Bible. Anyway, goes on to say in
• 4:04
  protest against her churches. So she's quoted the Bible in
• 4:07
  protest against her churches, sponsorship of an LGBT Pride
• 4:12
  event. In 2019, the church sponsoring
• 4:15
  it. She posted a link to Roman's The
• 4:19
  Book of Romans chapter 1 verse 24 to 27, which condemns
• 4:24
  homosexual activity in no, uncertain terms.
• 4:27
  So, So it goes on to quote, the verse here.
• 4:29
  It says, that, therefore, God gave them up in the last of
• 4:34
  their hearts, to impurity to the dishonoring of their bodies
• 4:37
  among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God,
• 4:41
  for a lie and worshipped and served the creature rather than
• 4:44
  the Creator who is blessed forever.
• 4:47
  Amen. But this reason, God gave them
• 4:49
  up to dishonorable passions for their women, exchanged natural
• 4:54
  relations for those that are contrary to Nature in the
• 4:57
  Likewise gave up natural relations with women and were
• 5:01
  consumed with passion for one. Another men committing Shameless
• 5:05
  acts with men and receiving in themselves.
• 5:09
  The due penalty for their error, and that was the English
• 5:13
  Standard Version. So to understand, goes on to
• 5:16
  say, to understand this case, it is helpful to read this passions
• 5:19
  carefully. It shows how countercultural the
• 5:22
  Bible can be for 21st century westerners.
• 5:26
  This is what this article. You're saying countercultural,
• 5:30
  the Bible can be for 21st century westerners even many
• 5:35
  traditional Christians who deemed the Bible, the infallible
• 5:39
  and inerrant word of God cannot help.
• 5:42
  But cringe a bit at the harsh, unadulterated, condemnation of
• 5:49
  homosexual, practices In this passage, after all virtually,
• 5:53
  every authoritative voice in our culture and everything.
• 5:57
  We see and hear in everyday life.
• 6:00
  Tell us that one sexual orientation is natural and not
• 6:05
  subject to moral judgment and that the free expression of
• 6:09
  almost any sexual impulse is a positive.
• 6:13
  Good got to remind you, this is what the article saying, this is
• 6:17
  not my opinion. Okay, obviously the article goes
• 6:21
  on and expresses how You know, we should all just be accepting
• 6:26
  and, you know, and we can't be held accountable for our sexual
• 6:31
  desires and how we act on our sexual desires.
• 6:35
  The problem is the Bible says, the Bible says that we can we
• 6:42
  should we don't have to act upon our every sexual desire.
• 6:47
  We have, we actually do choose the sexual desires that we
• 6:52
  pursue And we have a choice to make and the Bible says, this is
• 6:58
  the right way this in a laser that very clearly.
• 7:03
  This is not the way God intended, this is not, what is
• 7:07
  good for you. So as this as this article says
• 7:13
  virtually every authoritative voice in our culture it
• 7:17
  basically in and everything we see and hear in everyday, life
• 7:20
  tells us that one's sexual orientation is natural trying to
• 7:24
  paint this picture that it's all good.
• 7:26
  It's all natural. You should just be accepting it
• 7:28
  and says that it is not subject to moral judgment.
• 7:31
  That's because if you reading articles like this, and people
• 7:36
  with this mindset, obviously, they don't believe in God and
• 7:39
  they don't, Really understand. They don't want the God, who
• 7:44
  would say that these things are wrong, they want to chase after
• 7:49
  whatever desire they have in their heart.
• 7:53
  And they don't want to know that there are some things that you
• 7:56
  should not do. They don't want to be told that
• 7:59
  you cannot do some things thus while we have pride marches
• 8:04
  pride pride which the Bible says Lucifer was cast Cast out of
• 8:10
  heaven, for the pride for his pride.
• 8:14
  It is the original sin, isn't it pride?
• 8:18
  And yet we go and have a pride marches a pride month for crying
• 8:24
  out loud. We have a whole month classified
• 8:27
  as pride month. So now the next article I read
• 8:30
  the headline for this you'll probably see.
• 8:33
  It says UK pro-lifer, arrested a second time for silently praying
• 8:38
  near Abortion Center. So, your video footage of the
• 8:42
  incident, police officer can be seen telling recently acquitted
• 8:45
  Isabel Vaughn Spruce that it is still an offence to pray in the
• 8:51
  abortion clinics buffer zone, even if done so silently.
• 8:57
  So in Birmingham England, UK pro-life activist.
• 9:01
  Isabelle wants Bruce who was just acquitted last month on
• 9:04
  charges related to praying outside an abortion facility,
• 9:08
  isn't it funny? She was acquitted.
• 9:10
  Last month and yet, police still.
• 9:12
  Still go ahead and arrest a second time, so she was
• 9:16
  arrested. Again, this Monday for silently,
• 9:18
  praying outside, an abortion Center in a video posted on
• 9:21
  Twitter by Alliance defending Freedom.
• 9:24
  UK Monday to male police officers can be seen asking born
• 9:29
  Spruce to step outside the exclusion zone of an abortion
• 9:34
  facility. In Birmingham, born Spruce
• 9:36
  responds by calmly saying, but I'm not prone.
• 9:40
  Protesting. I'm not engaging in any of the
• 9:44
  act of the activities prohibited to this.
• 9:48
  The one officers said, but you've said, you're engaging in
• 9:53
  prayer, which is the offense, praying, praying is the offense.
• 9:59
  Okay, she says, silent prayer. She's engaging in silent prayer.
• 10:05
  He comes back with no, but you're still engaging in prayer,
• 10:10
  it is an offense restated, the officer who then asked Warren
• 10:14
  Spruce, if she would prefer to be arrested, rather than step
• 10:18
  outside the exclusion Zone, she says are those the only two
• 10:23
  Alternatives? Yes, said the policeman, So in a
• 10:27
  series of follow-up tweets, one of which contains additional
• 10:30
  video footage, ATF UK stated that police wrongly claim that
• 10:35
  the PSP, oh, the public space protection order, buffer zone
• 10:38
  band Isabel from Simply standing near a clinic.
• 10:42
  This is simply not true. A Court, ruled only weeks ago,
• 10:45
  that Isabel broke no laws by thinking a prayer in her mind.
• 10:50
  How can a role at this law with? So little Clarity, soad Fu K is
• 10:56
  referring to Klaus. Nine of the public order bill
• 10:59
  which MPS in the House of Commons are set to vote on.
• 11:04
  So, according to ADF UK, the passing of this Clause would
• 11:07
  criminalize any form of influencing outside of abortion
• 11:12
  facilities, which would include prayer with a potential prison
• 11:16
  sentence of up to two years. Now, the last one I want to go
• 11:21
  through. It's not really a headline, it's
• 11:25
  Movie a documentary, which is coming out.
• 11:28
  The documentary is called praying for Armageddon in this
• 11:32
  so-called documentary. Okay.
• 11:35
  The headlines one of the subtitle says when biblical
• 11:39
  prophecy fuels political power. Now when talking about the film
• 11:44
  it says praying for Armageddon is a political thriller that
• 11:47
  investigates dangerous consequences of the fusion
• 11:50
  between Evangelical Christianity and American politics.
• 11:54
  Through years of reporting this film, not only reveals how
• 11:58
  structures, or fundamentalism weaken, the very fabric American
• 12:03
  democracy but also highlights the devastating impact religion.
• 12:08
  Wields on u.s. foreign policy from a gut Grassroots foundation
• 12:13
  and megachurch Empires to the dark backroom maneuvering in
• 12:17
  Washington, d.c. this film Ventures inside of movement that
• 12:22
  ultimately aims to destroy our Let's civilization.
• 12:26
  This deep. Dive into power and policy.
• 12:29
  Unveils how politicians driven by faith and Brace Israel is the
• 12:34
  key to their prophetic vision for the end of days at any cost,
• 12:40
  ultimately escalating, the spirals of violence in the
• 12:44
  Middle East, as intercept as intercept journalist leaf and
• 12:49
  says, we cannot look away now, in press reviews.
• 12:54
  Variety says however, the core thesis is abundantly horribly.
• 12:59
  Clear, there are a growing number of people, in positions
• 13:02
  of major power in u.s. politics and broader Society, who are
• 13:06
  actively working to bring about the end of the world.
• 13:10
  As we know it, it does not feel fine.
• 13:14
  Deadline says imagine not only believing the world is coming to
• 13:18
  an end but wanting it to happen. Eagerly then take it a step
• 13:22
  further and imagine people with such a mentality in Age,
• 13:25
  engineering American politics and foreign policy to bring
• 13:29
  about the way things. The very thing they seek the
• 13:34
  apocalypse, the problem is okay. If you, if you read through what
• 13:39
  the world, where talks about the film, and about these reviews
• 13:43
  and everything, they completely twist, what the Bible is saying,
• 13:48
  they twist misrepresent what people are saying about, About
• 13:55
  the end times about the tribulation period, what the
• 13:57
  Bible teaches in the Book of Revelation, in the New Testament
• 14:01
  that Jesus spoke about what the Book of Daniel says, they are
• 14:04
  misrepresenting Bible prophecy. The media is now framing the
• 14:10
  Bible. As teaching, hate speech,
• 14:12
  there's been more and more of a push towards Banning.
• 14:16
  The Bible is becoming more the very thought of being in the
• 14:19
  Bible is very acceptable. People don't want to know that
• 14:24
  the Teachers that homosexuality, sick.
• 14:27
  All these sexual perversions are wrong.
• 14:30
  They don't we as Society teachers.
• 14:33
  It actually, preaches. That we must accept
• 14:37
  homosexuality. Then we must accept the lgbtq
• 14:41
  propaganda ideology that we have to accept drag queen story time
• 14:47
  that people don't have any control over their sexual urges.
• 14:50
  Apparently, we live in a world that does not want to hear that
• 14:54
  there. Is right and wrong.
• 14:56
  That does not want to hear that. They cannot just do whatever
• 15:00
  they want the world. We live in today, does not want
• 15:05
  to hear the truth. They do not want to hear about
• 15:08
  God. They want to hear about a God,
• 15:12
  that just makes them feel good. That doesn't tell them that they
• 15:15
  are sinners, that they cannot just run after every sexual
• 15:19
  deviant desire in their heart, they don't want to hear that.
• 15:24
  It is not Rights to just sleep with whomever and whatever you
• 15:30
  want that. They don't want to hear that.
• 15:33
  You can't actually be non-binary.
• 15:37
  They don't want to hear that. They don't want to hear that
• 15:40
  mankind was made in the image of God.
• 15:43
  They do not want to know that there is a right way and that
• 15:46
  there is wrong way, they do not want to know that God will judge
• 15:52
  mankind that will judge them. Ali in the end.
• 15:55
  They do not want to know that what they're doing is wrong.
• 16:00
  When you start putting all these things together and you see
• 16:02
  these new stories come up and you see the rhetoric coming
• 16:04
  across are news. I believe it's not going to be
• 16:07
  that long before the Bible will be banned, it will be illegal to
• 16:10
  own a Bible. An actual Bible, you know, like
• 16:15
  just the normal King James version, you might be able to
• 16:18
  own the kind of Bible that, you know, the Chinese have
• 16:20
  Rewritten, or something like that, but you won't be able to
• 16:22
  own just two regular King James new King James Version Bible.
• 16:27
  And it will be and Christians. We're gonna see more and more
• 16:31
  Christians, who believe that you can and should pray that you can
• 16:35
  and should not rely on God, on the Lord Jesus Christ that you
• 16:41
  should can and should read your Bible and follow the teachings
• 16:45
  in the Bible that you can and should believe that God, so
• 16:48
  loved the world that he gave his only begotten.
• 16:50
  Son, that whosoever believes in him will not perish and have but
• 16:54
  they will have everlasting life. And that they believe that God
• 16:59
  will return to the Earth. That there will be a
• 17:03
  tribulation, we are going to see more of these people.
• 17:05
  More Christians. Who believe in the Bible,
• 17:08
  arrested, I believe, Christianity.
• 17:12
  How do you say it? Bible book.
• 17:14
  Bible believing Christianity will soon be.
• 17:18
  Will soon be illegal. And they are going to start
• 17:24
  forcing the Christian Church underground in Western Society.
• 17:29
  That's where I think we're going.
• 17:31
  I think we're going there a lot quicker than people realize
• 17:34
  then, Western Nations like Australia, realizes Let me know
• 17:39
  what you think. That's my opinion.
• 17:42
  Thank you for listening. Do the slippery slope.
